Hooray for May! We are beyond excited for the things that come along with the month of May. State assessments and NWEAs will be under way this month to show us all the great learning that students have done this school year. We also have field trips, the grade 4 and 5 concert, end of school year highlights like; field day, waterslide, Asa's Got Talent, and the Lip-sync battle being planned. Needless to say the weeks ahead are sure to be busy.

It is hard to believe that the end of the school year is in sight. These final six weeks of school are sure to be full of fun, learning, and lot's of excitement. In reflection, the growth the students have made this year is amazing and even more amazing is the growth that the fifth graders have shown as they prepare to move on to Orono Middle School. It has been so much fun getting to know them this year and it will be bittersweet sending them to middle school.

We hope the end of the school year goes smoothly for your children and family. And as always, if you have suggestions or ideas on how we can make Asa an even better place for teaching and learning...please reach out. And finally, remember we are here if you need us.

Sincerely,

Ms. Wyman and Ms. West
