Presentation of Learning

Next week we will begin our POLs.  This is the time of year when we reflect on our learning.  We definitely have had our share of growth and struggles too! This is a fantastic opportunity to hear students share about their experiences here this year. Please use the sign up page link "POLs" to sign up for a time to observe your child presenting all that they have learned.  Presentations will begin on Tuesday, June 5th, right after lunch.  Please come and show support for your child taking ownership of their education.

3 more weeks!

I honestly can't believe how quickly the year has gone by.  Although when you look at how much our fifth graders have grown, they do seem to have changed dramatically since the beginning of the year.  I am so proud of them.
I wanted to thank all of the parents who drove and chaperoned on our field trip to the Ruben H. Fleet Space Theater and Science Center.  The students were very excited about all that they learned and discovered there.

Please remember that this week we have a four day weekend. There will be no school on Friday or Monday.
Also make a note that on June 6th, we will have our final family night.  Students will be presenting their "Is it Food?" projects that night. Part of the requirement for this project is presenting their work to the community.  Please try to come and support your student.  There will be food and some fun activities planned, so stay tuned.  On the last week of school we will have the following schedule. We are planning on having a beach clean-up/party day on the 14th. If you are able to drive,  please click on the link "drivers."  I apologize for the trouble that some of you encountered last time trying to sign up on my documents page.  I think that I clicked the view only option!
