Dear Robert Hunter families,
June is a busy month! Continue to stay updated by reading our newsletter, and we hope to see many families at the upcoming virtual PTO meeting on June 8th. We are looking forward to Field Day on June 9th. More information about the day is included below.
This past week, 4th grade students attended a field trip at the Da Vinci Science Center- thank you to our parent chaperones and to the PTO for supporting this wonderful experience for our students.
We are having many special activities as the school year ends. Encourage your children to stay focused on ending the year strong. We hope to make the most of these 12 days left of school!
Warm regards,
Jessica Braynor and Lindsay Shirvanian

Students should wear sneakers and comfortable clothes. Please apply sunblock at home in the morning. Sunblock can not be applied at school. Please pack a water bottle for your child as well as a complete change of clothes, as students may get wet during water games.
