Each year, Fifth Grade Teachers and Parents collaborate to celebrate our students who will be embarking on Middle School the following year. Our goal is to celebrate students’ achievement completing Elementary School with a boost of confidence as they embark on this next journey.
The celebration includes a bundle of goodies featuring a yearbook, panoramic class photo, t-shirt, party during the last week of school, and a promotion reception with families. The Fifth Grade Fundraising Committee aims to off-set the costs to fifth grade families by fundraising throughout the school year.
