Florence Fox News
May 2024
Dear Florence Parents/Guardians:
It is hard to believe that it is May! It really seems like we just started the school year a couple of months ago. It has been a wonderful school year and we are proud of the growth that our students are showing. You should be very proud as well.
We have many fun events planned for the month of May. This is a time to celebrate our accomplishments during the 2023-2024 school year.
As we say farewell to our 5th graders, we want you to know that we will miss you and we will be excited to hear all about middle school. We wish you the best! Remember, "once a fox, always a fox!"
Thank you for being our partners in education!
Sincerely,
Jodie Lenser
Principal
