Families will enter through the gym doors (19 E). As it is a regular school stay, students are expected to stay for the remainder of the school day.
Field Day - volunteers needed
In the event of rain: There are still plans for 2nd - 5th grade field day to have inside events and we will still need volunteers. 5th grade will have alternate plans as well and still need volunteers in the classroom. Here's hoping that it will be nice and everything can be outside!

Guidance Update
We are winding down our SEL classroom lessons as next week students will be involved in various activities. Students are practicing and putting into place the skills they have learned over the school year - cooperation, communication, kindness, empathy, and verbalizing feelings. Some are practicing conflict resolution skills and practicing being better friends. This week has seen some heightened behaviors due to the end of the year “excitement”.
From the Nurse
ATTENTION 5TH GRADE PARENTS: Immunizations are required for 6th grade.
Now is a good time to schedule these with your doctor or the health department.
Your doctor and or the health department will be able to view CHIRP and see what your child needs. This normally includes a Tdap, and Meningitis vaccine, HPV is optional.
(For those parents who have already done this, your child does not require anything else at this time.)
