Dear Families,   

I feel like I should be more excited about having less than two weeks of school left. Each day I wake up and look forward to going to work.  I love teaching, but a major reason that I love it is because of your child and the community that we created together this year.  THANK YOU for all of your support and everything that you have done for me and your child.  Have a wonderful summer.  This will be the last week that I will be sending home a Newsletter and Friday folder Work/Study Habits this year.

5^th Grade Promotion (Graduation)

*This event will be held at Paxton in the gym on Thursday, May 25th beginning at 9:00 am. *The ceremony will take approximately an hour and afterwards there will be time to take pictures in front of the school.

*This is the last day of school and is also a ½ day. 

*Dismissal will be at 12:50 p.m. and you will have the option to take your child home after the graduation ceremony (without being penalized for an absence).
