MESSAGE FROM ADMINISTRATION
Dear Cottle Parents: Once again the Cottle Community was treated to a fantastic concert! Congratulations to Mrs. Kim for a job well done and special thanks to Mr. Grasso who was accompanist during the show. The fourth and fifth grade chorus performed beautifully! We are excited that the Cottle Chorus will sing at Citifield next week on May 25th at 7PM. If you haven’t picked up your Mets tickets yet, please pick them up in the Main Office. Game day is fast approaching. All week long Cottle students have been enjoying the Cottle Circus during gym periods, especially our third graders! Third grade students participated in circus training all week getting ready to show-off for their parents during tonight’s Third Grade Circus show. Showtime is 6PM tonight in the gymnasium! On Monday, May 22nd, the Tuckahoe Schools will hold its annual Memorial Day ceremony to honor of our local veterans who served in the Armed Forces.
