5TH GRADE PROMOTIONAL CEREMONY
We are so excited to CELEBRATE our 5th grade students on Tuesday, May 19th!!!! Fifth grade parents can start lining up cars by 12:40 P.M. This Drive-thru celebration will run like our Morning Drop-off Car line- PLEASE FOLLOW THE CONES. Parents will start lining up there. We will start the Drive-thru Celebration at 1:00 P.M. Cars will drive through the Peabody Parking lot (FOLLOW THE CONES). At the end of the Drive-thru in the parking lot, students will be presented their 5th Grade Promotional Certificate. Again, we ask that everyone remain in their cars. Once cars leave the parking lot, please turn right on Tanglewood heading towards Oliver/Nelson Street to help with the flow of traffic.
We look forward to seeing all our 5th graders Tuesday!
INTERNATIONAL STUDIES CELEBRATION/SCHOOL YEAR ENDED
Our school year will officially end this week. Teachers will not teach any virtual lessons this last week of school. However, all grades will engage in an International Studies Celebration with students one day this week.
We have enjoyed our students this school year and we are wishing everyone a fun and safe summer!!!
REPORT CARDS
The District will generate final report cards to students soon. The final report card will include the added 3-5 points to your child's final grade. If your child did not make adequate progress this school year, the school counselor will contact parents towards the end of next week about Virtual Summer School.

For example, serve bowls of oatmeal for Goldilocks and the Three Bears, serve pancakes for If You Give a Pig a Pancake, serve muffins for If You Give a Moose a Muffin, or sugar snap peas for Jack and the Beanstalk.

Music and Dance with Mr. Sanders.
"Armenian Misirlou" is an upper level dance. This video takes students through the basic misirlou dance step. It is a challenge and will take some practice for some students.
"Le Freak Line Dance" is a dance that can be performed easily by students from grades 3-5. Lower grade students can master it, but it will take a little more time. Remember, the dance is being taught with me facing the camera, so the directions (right and left) will be opposite. If this it too confusing, just move in the same direction that I do.
