Welcome to Our House "Where Character Matters"
Dear Botsford Families,
This week we have our all school Annual Spring Concert on May 9th at 7:00pm. Students are being asked to arrive between 6:30 and 6:45pm. Students are encouraged to dress in concert attire: nice top, nice slacks or skirt. It is best to make sure the shirt is all one color with no words so as to not distract from the performance. The concert this year is a tribute to the STRENGTH and CHARACTER of our students. You will not want to miss it! There are lots of activities in the spring but only ONE Botsford Spring Concert. We look forward to seeing all of our families.
Goal Setting during NWEA GROWTH is what we are CELEBRATING!
Attention 5th Grade Parents!
INCOMING 6TH GRADE ORIENTATION
6th Grade Orientation will take place on Monday, May 14 from 6:30 - 7:30 PM. Please meet in the CMS cafeteria at 6:30 for a short parent presentation by Principal Lown. Students will participate in a connector in the gymnasium during the presentation. Students and parents will then have the opportunity to tour the school and to have questions answered by NJHS students, staff, and administration.
5TH/6TH GRADE ACTIVITY NIGHT
Our annual 5th/6th Grade Activity Night is Friday, May 18 from 6:00 - 8:00 PM. Admission is $4 with a student ID and $5 without a student ID. This is a great opportunity for our incoming 6th graders to become acquainted with our 6th grade staff, and to have some fun with their new 6th grade classmates from both elementary schools. We hope your child will be able to attend. Parents are welcome to stay, but it is not necessary. Students MUST be picked up promptly at 8:00.
