This quote reminds me exactly what these last two weeks are all about, making memories! This week is packed with many exciting events. 

Tuesday, May 17th: We will have our Middle School Fly Up day. We will board the buses at 12:45 and will return by 3:10. The students will be eating lunch earlier at 12;00. This is an exciting day, they will have an opportunity to tour the building, meet their principals, their new teachers, ask questions, eat a snack, and learn all about 6th grade.

Thursday, May 19th:Please join us for their DARE Graduation and 5th Grade Recognition Ceremony, in the gym at 10:30 am. They will be given a DARE shirt to wear the morning of the ceremony. Typically this ceremony lasts around one hour.  

Friday, May 20th: Fun Day!!!

In between all of these events, we are squeezing in some learning as well.
