June 10, 2016
Dear Moose Community,
Field Day was a great success! Thanks to Ms. Borkhuis for spearheading this fabulous day of fun and games, cooperation and teamwork. Thank you also to our staff and our parent volunteers including Dani Rouse, Rebecca Addison, Angela Regan, Jessi Conrad. And congratulations to 6th grader Sylvia Goldman on her big hula hoop contest win!!
The 6th graders presented their portfolios this week. It’s always amazing to witness their poise and professionalism as students and public speakers. It is with great confidence that we send the 6th grade off to Middle School! Thank you to the MANY community members who donated time to come in and be a part of the panel for 6th graders to present to. The 6th Grade Graduation will take place on Thursday, June 16 at 6:30pm.
Only 7 more school days to go until summer! The last day of school is on Tuesday, June 21 and is an early release day. We will hold the last day of school assembly at 10:30am that Tuesday. Families are welcome to join us in saying goodbye for the summer!
Today is the final day to fill out our School Council Survey. Please go to http://goo.gl/forms/iAAARd6JtNy6BwyU2 and enter for a chance to win 2 of Chef Gail's pizzas.
Have a great weekend,
Jackie
