Happy Summer Monday!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer and resting up for a fabulous new year! Postcards went out this past week, and I know the teachers are readily preparing for their new "Sharks". If students are in 3rd-5th grades, please know the postcards may have read one name, but the students will be switching classes. Some may have read one name, but know they will have both teachers and the homerooms may differ. Either way, the teachers are so excited to have you in their classes!

It is hard to believe, but there are only 13 more weekdays before school starts, so enjoy these relaxing days while you can! See below for supply lists, after-school registration, and more! I can't wait to see you at Meet the Teacher on July 30th from 3:30 to 7!

Committed to Success,

Heather Touchberry

We enjoyed having families in for our mid-summer Reading Night! We talked about reading aloud at home and challenged students with two book give aways - Adventures of Og the Frog and Because of Mr. Terupt! It was so nice seeing so many families!

We have a new addition this year to our school! It's a spirit rock to be rented out by families to celebrate their student! The guidelines and sign up link is below. All proceeds will help fund our field trips this year! Please be sure to pay AND sign up on SignUp Genius.
