IMPORTANT! End of the Year Celebrations for Families!
You are invited to attend some of our end of the year celebrations this week.
On Monday, June 5th at 1:45, we will have our end of the year Celebration Assembly at the Orchard View Track. Parents are invited to attend, but students will be required to stay with their classes. Our students earned entries for prizes for i-Ready Growth, Perfect Attendance, and Zero Behavior Referrals. We will be drawing names for prizes. Also, if our students reached their $2000 goal for Cardinals Can, Mrs. MacDonald and Mrs. Benson will have to kiss a goat! Please do not park in the Bus Parking Lot if you are attending this event. This would not only delay our dismissal, but also the dismissal for OVEE.
On Tuesday, June 6th at 2:00, our 5th Graders will parade around Cardinal Elementary as their younger classmates and former teachers cheer them on. They will exit from the 5th grade doors, head towards the front lot, circle the building and end in the auditorium for a slideshow. 5th Grade Parents are invited to come in for the slideshow by entering through the auditorium doors. Parents can park in the front lot or the west lot. Please do not park in the pick up lane. Please do not park in the Bus Parking Lot if you are attending this event. This would not only delay our dismissal, but also the dismissal for OVEE.
Please do not go to the office to sign out students early following these events.
