Newsletter: March 28

These full weeks of school have been wonderful! We are getting lots of work done and enjoying NORMAL again! We have started our State Projects...read more below. 

School Carnival!!! 

Thanks to all who volunteered, donated, and attended the carnival. It was a HUGE success and lots of fun was had by all. 

State Projects 

We are working on our HUGE state projects. Each student has been assigned one of the 50 states. They will be working on several different research projects: capital city, travel brochures, important people, and state reports. All of the work will be on display at our 5th Grade State Fair on April 24th. More information will come regarding times. All work will get done at school as long as students utilize their time well. 

BeAcH DaY! 

Friday, April 4, is Beach Day at school. This is our way to celebrate and kick off Spring Break. Students can dress for the summer weather (that we will hopefully have someday)! Beach towels, sunglasses, flip flops...Let’s celebrate! We will have the school-wide Beach Party and Limbo contest at 2pm in the gym.

Newsletter: February 28

We have reached the end of the second trimester. Report cards will be sent home on Friday, March 7. Along with report cards, you will receive your student’s AR Report for the trimester and a ClassDojo behavior report. If you have any questions about grades, AR, or behavior, I would be happy to meet with you! 

School Carnival 

The annual School Carnival will be held March 21 at Syracuse Elementary. 

5-7pm Dolphin Diner open 

5-7pm Raffle and Silent Auction 

5:15-7:30pm Games 

Room parents will contact volunteers. 

Silent Auction Basket 

Our class will be partnering with Mr. Stewart’s class to put together a basket for the silent auction. Our theme is Wawasee/Sports. We are asking for donations of sports equipment, Wawasee wear, and athletic bags. If you would like to donate, please send things with your student by March 14! 

ISTEP+ Testing 

We will be taking the Applied Skills portion of the ISTEP+ test March 10-14. Testing will take place each morning. If your son or daughter needs to have any appointments, please try to avoid these mornings. This prevents them from having to take any make-up tests and miss class time. Also remember to make sure your student gets a good night of sleep and eats a healthy breakfast! 

Trimester 3 

We are entering the final trimester of the year! These next 12 weeks will fly by! Let’s finish out the school year strong: making goals, working hard, and prepping for Middle School!
