National Speech-Language Pathologist Day: Monday, May 18 is National Speech-Language Pathologist Day and we are so grateful to have Ms. Rachel on our team! She joined us in January and has been a fantastic addition to the team and great support to our students who are impacted by her services.
End-of-year Assessments: Students will continue to have opportunities to show what they have learned this year on their end of year assessments. This includes our Reading EOGs for 3rd-5th grade on Thursday and Science EOGs for 5th grade on Friday. Make sure to keep a look out for grade level specific information in student folders, newsletters, and on Dojo. It is important that students are getting good rest, eating a healthy breakfast and at school each day as we finish the year!
Family Engagement Event: Get ready for Family Engagement Night on Tuesday, May 19! Come out from 5-6 PM for a FREE hotdog dinner and check out your child's work. Then stick around for our chorus performances and shadow puppet show. You might just learn some life (and science) lessons! ALL students have a part, so we hope to see you all there!
Bridge Update: The last day for the Bridge for the school year is this Thursday, May 21. Please make sure your child and their teacher know their plans for after school transportation.
