Carelli Cup Home Stretch
The final event schedule has been adjusted slightly. The last event will take place on Friday, 5/26, with students being released at 2:25 to the 1-8 Gym. Mrs. Serstad is planning the event. Feedback or suggestions to make our time together with the kids in the gym fun and memorable is always welcome. We will present the Carelli Cup to the winning grade after the final event on 5/26. The winning grade will also receive an ice cream party sponsored by the Parent's Club.
End of the School Year Preparation
The remaining weeks of school will seem to go very fast. As we plan for the end of the school year, a reminder that our guiding principles (each minute of class time is crucial for guiding students forward) hold true right up until the last minute of class on the last day of school. We treat the last day/week of school as if it was any other. We will run this Early Release Schedule on the last day of school with normal classes taking place.
Forward Exam Information
We are finished! Thanks to all for your flexibility in creating the environment for our students to do their best!
