Guidance Update
Some students are having a difficult time regulating themselves during this unstructured time. I have met individually with several students this week who just “needed a break." I have also met with some students to give encouraging advice to get them through their time at home this summer as well as their adventure into middle school.
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.)

BRAVES OF THE WEEK
2nd Grade: Jaxson Cook
3rd Grade: Owen Selleck
Owen has been an awesome student and classmate this year! He always participates in class, tries his best, and has a joke ready to share. Even with our crazy schedules the past few weeks, he has gone with the flow and been a great friend to those around him. -Mrs. Brown
4th Grade: Melody Rappuhn
Melody is a sweet student in our classroom. She tries really hard at all tasks assigned to her. She loves doing games in her classroom and loves to be included in anything we are doing. She has a big heart and her smile warms everyone around her. She is a true friend and knows how to make you laugh. I will miss her next year but I know she will do great things in 5th Grade. -Mrs. Wagner
5th Grade: Luke Miller
Luke is kind and respectful to others. He is always asking to help around the classroom, and he makes sure that the cubby room is clean at the end of the day. He likes to share his knowledge about social studies and science during class. I am glad that Luke was in my class this year, and I wish him the best of luck when he goes to middle school next year. -Mrs. Pete
