Thank you so much for all of the LOVE last week for Teacher Appreciation! I am the luckiest to have your kids in my life and will miss them tremendously!  

We have an exciting week ahead! Please join us for our DARE Graduation and 5th Grade Recognition Ceremony on Thursday at 10:30 in the gym! We also have Fun Day on Friday (wear clothes you wouldn't mind getting wet and maybe bring an extra set of clothes for after!)

With all of our activities, we will try our best to squeeze in as much learning AND fun as possible! Here's what else is happening this week---

Social Studies- We will continue learning about the Roaring 20s and the Great Depression.
