Grade 5 Move Up Ceremony June 10, 2025
Dear Grade 5 Parents and Guardians,
We are so excited to celebrate the growth and accomplishments of our Leasure Bears as they prepare to move on to the next chapter of their educational journey. Our 5th Grade Move-Up Ceremonies will be held on Tuesday, June 10, 2025, from 9:30am-11:00am. Due to space limitations in our school cafeteria, each student may invite up to four guests to attend the ceremony. Each student will receive four personalized tickets in advance. All guests must present their ticket and a photo ID upon arrival. We look forward to celebrating this special milestone with you!
Last Day of School: June 11, 2025
Dear Leasure Families,
It’s hard to believe the last day of school is almost here! Wednesday, June 11, 2025, marks the official end of the 2024–2025 school year. This will be a half-day for students, with dismissal at 11:45 AM.
We are incredibly proud of all that our students have accomplished this year. From academic growth and creative exploration to community events and classroom celebrations, this has been a year full of learning, laughter, and lasting memories.
Thank you to our families for your unwavering support, encouragement, and partnership throughout the year. Your involvement has been essential to our school’s success and your child’s growth.
We wish all our students and families a safe, restful, and joyful summer break. We look forward to welcoming everyone back in the fall for another great year of learning at Leasure!
Grading Schedule Updates for Marking Period 4

Please refer to the lists below for details on these changes.
Important New Dates for Families
June 10 - Marking Period 4 will end (original date: June 11)
June 17 - Report Cards will be available on HAC at 11 AM (original date: June 18)
June 11 - Last day of school (no change)
June 24 - HAC will close, but report cards will also be mailed home to families
End of Year Device Reminder:
As the school year draws to a close, we want to remind you that all technology devices issued to students will be collected prior to the start of summer break. Please be aware that families will be held responsible for any damages incurred to these devices. Please see the technology agreement on our website.
We kindly ask that you encourage your children to handle their devices with care and avoid any intentional damage. Please be aware that any damage to Chromebooks may result in financial responsibility and, in some cases, disciplinary action. Taking proper care of these devices ensures they remain in excellent working condition for all students to enjoy. Thank you for your support and cooperation in helping us maintain our technology resources.
Summer Reading
Summer reading workbooks will be provided for students in Kindergarten through Grade 4 during the first week of June.
Fifth grade students will receive a summer reading book and accompanying project as they prepare to transition to middle school. Grade 5 teachers will distribute the book and related assignments directly to students.
