5th Grade Weekly Update… Aug 31-Sept 3

Dear 5th Grade Parents and students,

We made it through the first week!  The days flew by, and we learned a lot this week about each other, but I also saw a lot of teamwork and collaboration as they navigated the big changes that they experienced.  I’m excited to see what’s in store for us this year! 🙂   Next week will be a four day week, so we are easing into the year…. Check out some “first day” photos of your 5th grader HERE.

🎒K-8 Back to School Night:  Our Back to School night will take place on Tuesday Sept 2nd.  Everyone should meet in the Family Life Center at 6:00 for the large group meeting.  Then you will be dismissed to go to your child’s homeroom teacher’s meeting.  You can choose to either go to the 6:30 or the 7:15 homeroom teacher meeting.  There will also be two band meetings.  One at 7:15 and the other at 8:00.  During this time, I will go over a lot of important information about middle school academics, policies, dates, etc. I look forward to seeing you then!

All students are expected to attend. If for some reason you are unable, please send an email to Ms. Bremer to let her know as soon as you can. We appreciate the open and thoughtful communication.
