5th Grade Newsletter
                                          May 16, 2018
This will be the last newsletter and progress report that will be sent home this year.
Thank you so much for helping your children find costumes and memorize parts for the
Famous American Play.  I’m sure you were as thrilled as we were with the great job the
students did. SAGE testing is over. We can focus on some last minute math concepts
students need to know before they enter 6th grade; and of course, we’ll do some really
fun activities!  Please look at the list of events.

May 22,  Tuesday, Field Day (held at South Elementary)
May 24,  Wednesday, Last day of school, school dismissed at 1:30 PM
          For Tent Day students need to be able to set up and take down their own tents, unless
you want to come and help them. Tents may be set up before 8:50 or at 10:30. Students should
bring activities and games for the day. There is no Wi-Fi. Most students indicated they would
be bringing a home lunch, so don't forget that. Those who ordered a school lunch will be going
into the building to eat. We will take the tents down at about 3:10.
We would like students to bring a t-shirt (white or light colored, used or new)
by tomorrow, that can be tie-dyed with Mrs. Davis.
Please look for any library books or other school books that need to be returned to
school.  Students will need to return or pay for lost books in order to receive their
yearbooks and promotion cards.
This has been an amazing year, and it will be hard to say goodbye to these students.
You have been supportive parents, and we can’t ask for more than that.  
Thank you for sharing your children with us this school year!
