Mrs. VanHekken and Mrs. Jasiak will be hosting their last family Google Hangout this Thursday, May 28, 2020 at 6 p.m. They would love for anyone with celebrations, concerns, or questions to join us as we near the end of this school year. Here is the link:
Congratulations to the following students for passing another level in the Lexia/Core 5 program:
-Ethan
We are so excited to launch the 2020 Summer Learning Challenge! Like last year, we are challenging all of our current Y5 - 4th grade students to "go for gold" by keeping learning and discovery alive all summer long! By dedicating a small portion of free time to fun learning activities, students will work to overcome the dreaded effects of "summer slide". Click here to access the document for this summer's challenge. We can't wait to pass out medals in the fall!
4th & 5th Grade Student Devices
Several of the apps that your child has used during this period of remote emergency learning will continue to be available throughout the summer months. We are pleased to be able to offer the use of your child’s assigned Chromebook for this extended learning opportunity. However, if your family is not in need of the school device for summer enrichment, we would encourage you to return it to school on June 3rd during your child’s assigned pick-up/drop-off time so that our IT department can work on the redeployment of devices for fall learning. Thank you!

Reminders: Please have car tag with students last name visible so staff can prepare the items and keep traffic flowing (pick-up tags would be perfect for this). Items to be returned to your family will be placed in the trunk or back seat in order to adhere with social distancing guidelines. Please remember that everyone must stay in their vehicles to ensure everyone's safety and comfort.

Farewell Parade
Our staff is planning a special farewell for our students and their families. On the evening of June 4th we will be hosting a "reverse" farewell parade. Staff will line the bus lot along Garden Lane and will invite your family to drive through and wave farewell.

I can't tell you how much I enjoyed having your children in class this year; this is truly an amazing bunch of kids! I am so impressed by how hard they have worked over the last few months of e-learning and I have really enjoyed seeing them and talking to them (and you!) during our 1 to 1 meetings. Thank you so much for all of your support! I hope you have an amazing and relaxing summer.
Best,
Mrs. Hassenger
