K-5 Last day of School

No Scholl Summer break Begins

Families,

The last three days are here. I had some students last week talk about how fast the year went, I would agree. This is a great group of students and I wish them nothing but happiness and a healthy future. Thank you for letting me be a small part of their lives!! Have a great summer, be safe, have fun, and I hope you stop by next year!!!

Families,

We are down to seven days of the school year. Unbelievable!!! I have had some questions concerning graduation next week. First, anyone in the family is invited to attend the ceremony at 1:45. Please make sure to check in at the elementary office before going up to the high school auditorium. Second, you are welcome to take your child home afterwards if you want. This week we are going to finish up our novel study. We will not have any more vocabulary, but Thursday comp. continues as well as the Friday packet. The students will be going to the HS for lunch on Tuesday to get a practice run before school starts in the fall. This is always a fun experience!! I hope you had a great weekend!

Track and Field Day.

Families,

This week we are going to share our tee shirt book report, finish up our descriptive writing piece, and have our last vocab. quiz Thursday. The kids have been working on a novel study the last couple weeks. We are getting close to wrapping those up. We will have movie day for the novel Flora & Ulysses and do some compare and contrast between the movie and novel. I will let you know what day when it gets closer. On Tues., May 27, we are having lunch up in the HS. This will give the students a look at what it is like for next year. Hope to see many of you at track-n-filed day. Enjoy your Memorial weekend!!
