The PTA is hosting a Fifth Grade Celebration for all fifth-grade students on Friday, June 2, 2023, from 4:15 - 6:15 p.m. The theme and tone of the event has shifted. This is not a drop off event. This event will be open for parents to attend. The event is focused on exiting 5th graders so siblings should be discouraged from attending. As a reminder, students can enjoy Kona Ice, a photo booth with take home prints, music, snacks, outdoor yard games, an all-class dodgeball game, plus an epic game of Name That Tune. Please register below by May 26, the total number of people in your party so we can prepare food, drinks and prizes accordingly.
