A note from the Principal...
As another year comes to a close, I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you. I very much appreciate the warm welcome, support, and encouragement that you have shown me during my first year here.
Thank you students! Thanks for coming ready and giving it your all. Thanks for working hard and having fun while learning and making friends. Thanks for showing great character and representing Disney so well this year!
Thank you parents! Thank you for getting your kids to school ready to learn each day. Thanks for helping them, advocating for them, and working with us. It is so important that we work together to provide the best education we can. Thanks for all your help.
Thank you staff! No matter your role, thank you for working so hard for our kids. Thanks for advocating for kids like they were your own. Thanks for wanting them to walk away each day with something new. Thanks for taking chances, being flexible, and learning right along with kids.
Thank you PTO! Thank you for getting all the “other stuff” done! Thanks to our PTO executive board for your leadership and keeping kids first and foremost in your mind!
Thank you volunteers! Thank you for coming for a variety of reasons, but mostly to support our work. We really do appreciate it!
It has been a GREAT year! Congratulations to all our students on completing another successful school year. We are all so proud of the growth and accomplishments our students have demonstrated throughout the year.
All of us at Disney Elementary are wishing our families a wonderful summer vacation filled with cherished moments, laughter, exploration, and enjoyment with families. We are looking forward to welcoming students back in August for another wonderful school year.
Warm Regards,
Amy Porter
Principal
Walt Disney Elementary
Last Day of School Signs!
Congratulations 6th Grade
To our exceptional 6th Grade families, we extend our heartfelt congratulations. As your child embarks on a new chapter in their life journey, we wish them tremendous success as they transition into middle school. They have grown and flourished within the walls of Disney, and we have no doubt they will continue to shine bright in their future endeavors. Please know that our doors are always open, and we are here to support your child as they embark on this exciting new phase.
End-of-the-year iPad Collection
If your child still has their iPad or charger, please make sure to return to the media center as soon as possible to avoid being charged for the device.
If you have questions or concerns about the condition or status of the iPad, case, charging brick and/or charging cord, please reach out to Mrs. Cichocki, our Media Specialist, as soon as possible – Dorothy.Cichocki@fraserk12.org
Please note all devices are to be turned in. Students participating in summer programs will receive their iPad and charger back during summer school.
Report Cards
Disney SuperSTARS
On Thursday, June 1st, we had the last lunch with the principal and our Disney SuperSTARs. Thank you students, for your leadership and demonstrating exemplary behaviors each and everyday!
FHS Class of 2023 returns to Disney
It is a tradition that our graduating Fraser High School students return to their Elementary school and revisit where their educational journey began. On Friday, May 26th, we welcomed the Disney Elementary 6th grade class of 2017 back to the halls of Disney to congratulate them on completing their last day of high school! Our current Disney students loved helping them celebrate by participating in a clap out. Congratulations to the Fraser High School class of 2023 on your upcoming graduation and all of your accomplishments!
