Collier Elementary
May 2024 Newsletter
Message from Mrs. Langford, Collier Principal
The weather has gotten warmed and May is here! We are all looking forward to Summer Break just around the corner.
As we head into summer we can reflect on all that has happened this school year. Our students have grown in so many ways. They have read new books, new math skills have been learned, and they have all gotten taller! This time of year is a time for celebrating all the learning we have done and all of our acomplishments.
We also want to thank all our Collier Families for choosing Collier! We are very grateful for each and every one of you!!
We hope that you have an amazing Summer Break!
