5th Grade Celebration - Saturday, June 6th at 10am in the Tiogue Parking Lot
We will be meeting in the upper parking lot of Morse Tavern beginning about 9:45am-9:50am.
Coventry Police will be there to help in our celebration.
We will have a lead car or cars there at Morse Tavern to greet the families and to begin to escort the line of cars directly to Tiogue, using East Shore Dr.
We have strict guidance to follow for the event - No one can get out of cars at the start location or at the school. We ask that students wear masks when cars enter the school grounds. Obviously, that can ultimately be a parent/guardian decision.
At 10am our lead car will start down East Shore heading toward school. Officer Ricci helped us to lay out our plan. We will travel down East Shore until we get to the fork in the road by school. We will travel down the road adjacent to Tiogue leading toward the back of our building.
Our parade of cars will then drive onto the school grounds near the back of our gymnasium. Cars will take an immediate left and drive down the side of the building where our minibuses usually exit the grounds. We ask that you just follow the lead car and the cars in front of you.
The parade of cars will then take an immediate right into our parking lot, passing by our front door.
We will have faculty & staff stationed around that area (at a safe 10 foot distance) as well as parked within the middle and right hand perimeter of our parking lot.
We ask that cars follow each other around the parking lot and exit our parking area heading back down East Shore Dr. in the opposite direction that we came.
Teacher Evaluations
If you were not evaluated this year because you were "off-cycle", you will still need to acknowledge the form that was sent to you. That form documents why you were not evaluated in 2019-20.
Thank you.

Guardians of the Galaxy Pt. 1
Brash space adventurer Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) finds himself the quarry of relentless bounty hunters after he steals an orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain. To evade Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with four disparate misfits: gun-toting Rocket Raccoon, treelike-humanoid Groot, enigmatic Gamora, and vengeance-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when he discovers the orb's true power and the cosmic threat it poses, Quill must rally his ragtag group to save the universe.
The Prince of Tides By, Pat Conroy (THE NOVEL, NOT THE MOVIE)
The Prince of Tides is a novel by Pat Conroy, first published in 1986. It revolves around traumatic events that affected former football player Tom Wingo's relationship with his immediate family.
Read this book for the first time my senior year of HS. Made me (immediately) thankful that I did not grow up in such turmoil. If you have not read the book, I would highly recommend it.
