Grill Out Success!!!
Thank you for helping to make our First 5th Grade Grill out a success!!! The kids had a great time, and we had so much fun both principals and several teachers came to join us!! We really appreciate the families that volunteered to send things in. I'm sorry that everyone didn't get a chance to send items in...the google form was filled within about 1 hour of sending it out!!! We have been so blessed this year to have such supportive and loving families to work with. You make doing the extras possible..we could not do it without you!!!

Middle School Visit
We started our middle school visit with Ms. Herbold (Principal) giving the students a presentation explaining what a typical day for them would look like. After the presentation Student Council Members gave each class a tour of the building focusing on the 6th grade hallway, and areas that they would be for classes, lunch, PE, music, band, etc.
Websites We Like in Class
- Prodigy math practice math while playing online with friends
- Frontrow practice reading and math
- Xtramath practice math facts
- Mobymax has math, science, social studies, and reading
- Scholastic Study Jams science and math videos
- Study Ladder -has videos explaining all the subjects
**These websites would be great to use during the summer months to help keep students sharp and ready for Middle School. They can also use them as resources in 6th grade!!!
End of Year Meal Reminders: Important
- School lunch cannot be charged during May !!!!
- All meal charges should be paid as soon as possible and enough money sent to prepay current meals.
- A complimentary PBJ + Milk for lunch and Whole-Grain Toast + Milk for breakfast is available for students not on free meal benefits who forget their money or a packed lunch from home.
- Parents of students who will not be returning next school year can complete a "Lunch Refund Request" to have any remaining money donated to another student or mailed as a check to their new address. The form can be filled out at the child's school or downloaded from the Food Service Department's website under "Resources", then "Lunch Refund Request". Students positive lunch balances will follow them to the Middle School.
- Balances may be checked online thru your Parent Portal account or contact the Food Service Department at 735-3753 or e-mail ruth.melvin@republicschools.org.
