You truly helped us make this year wonderful in the time we had. From sending in supplies, requested items for activities, to being involved in your child’s schooling: you were so helpful and we thank you for that! YOU help make our job great. As this school year comes to a close, we ask you to enjoy your time together, remember kindness, and stay safe. Thank you for everything!

A Note from the Teachers to the Students!
Your teachers love and miss you dearly. We are so sorry we didn’t get a chance to say goodbye properly as we closed out our school year. Please know, that even though you will be big 5th graders next year, we will always be here for you! Come see us anytime, especially at open house for a big hug to close out 4th grade as you enter into 5th grade. Remember, you are in charge of you. You can do anything you put your mind to. Don’t settle for being just okay, always try your hardest and do your best. We believe you will do great things in your future.
