Fifth Grade Family Info

We had a fabulous field trip on the Duck Boat Tour today! Thank you for making this possible.

 

I will make the call about where we are having the Celebration of Learning on Sunday morning. Look for an email from me by 11am.


Finally, if you are planning on taking your younger children (siblings) to the celebration of learning, please email Sue Robinson and the classroom teacher right now. Please don't wait until Monday morning. This will allow us to plan and have your children ready. In the email, please indicate if the sibling is returning to class following the ceremony or being dismissed from school for the day.


THANK YOU!
