Skaggs Elementary Newsletter
May 26, 2021
Skaggs Families,
On Monday, we saw our graduating fifth grade class through three separate celebrations. It was special to see the @Home students in person. We are incredibly proud of our Stars and will miss them. We anticipate a great future they will build for us!
We want to take a moment to thank the parents and guardians for their grace, support, and generosity this year. We appreciate you so much for lifting us up during a tough year. Your encouragements fueled us to keep going and focus on what we are here to do. Our school wouldn't be the same without you. Thank you!
Culminating activities, class parties and extra recesses await the last day of school. We wish you a safe summer with lots of fun!
We will see you back on August 11th!
Sincerely,
Karen Lee & Christy James
