Looking Ahead: Info for Sixth Grade 2019-2020
Hi almost-sixth-grade families! To help prepare for the upcoming school year, we wanted to share some information with you. Sixth Grade has changed the dates for Gator Camp (formerly Science Camp) and we want you to know early so you can plan. Our new dates are October 2 - 4, 2019. This is the week before Fall Break. We leave on Wednesday, October 2 and return on Friday, October 4, at about 12:00, noon. This leads right into Fall Break. Time for all to rest, relax and recover.
Our second field trip will be to the Arizona Renaissance Festival in the spring. The students enjoy this trip and learn a bit more about aspects of life in the middle ages. Huzzah!
Another experience in sixth grade to look forward to is changing classes. Students will have different teachers for Math, ELA, and Science and Social Studies. This is an exciting experience for students as they get to know all of the sixth grade teachers. It also helps prepare them for junior high in an environment where they are familiar and comfortable with making these transitions.
The sixth grade teachers are looking forward to meeting you and having a great year with an outstanding group of Gators!
