Timothy Lutheran Ministries: 4-G’s Area
Why? The
4th grade class has been studying Missouri history and we want to share some of
our knowledge with you!
*There is no need to R.S.V.P. Please just come by at your convenience. The entire museum will take about 20 minutes
to go through and to see all of the exhibits.
Thank you!
*Preschool + 8th Grade Graduation is Friday,
May 17th at 7:00 p.m. ALL
students are highly encouraged to attend, as the band and choir groups are both
going to be performing. Since Timothy is
such a family, it will be even more meaningful to have our whole school there
to send off our graduates with our prayers and support.
*Hello, parents! To culminate our studies of Missouri
History, we are going to Harry S. Truman Library and Missouri Town on Friday,
May 17th! We will leave school at 8:45 and head to Truman Library
first (500 W US Hwy 24, Independence, MO 64050) for our tour at 9:15. We
were able to receive a scholarship for this, so the students are free.
Adults are $8.00. The tour is about two hours long. Afterwards, we
will head across the street to McCoy Park, quickly eat our sack lunches and play
for a bit. Then, we will head back this way to Missouri Town (8010 E Park
Rd, Lee's Summit, MO 64081) for our tour at 12:30. Students are
$4.00 and adults are $3.00 each. This will last about an hour and a
half. If we have time, we may stop and play before we come back to school
again too. We will need drivers for this event, so if you can, please
sign-up below. What a fun day!
In a nutshell:
Students: $4.00 and a sack lunch
Parents: $11.00 and a sack lunch

Religion- This week we learned the parable of the
lost sheep and discussed how Jesus is our shepherd. On Thursday, we celebrated National Day of
Prayer by meeting with whole school in the lobby for a prayer and the

God!
