5th Grade News

Dear 5th-grade families, 


Our last Student-Led Conferences are coming up this May 20th and May 22nd. Please sign up by clicking on your child's homeroom class link under the "Reminders" section of the website. Looking ahead, we want to share some information about the 5th-grade Promotion Ceremony. Students will wear the 6th-grade blue-and-white school uniform to symbolize the transition to middle school. The white polo shirts can be purchased in the ANS Tiger Store.


Save the Date for the Fifth-Grade Promotion Ceremony: Fifth-Grade Promotion Ceremony will be on Tuesday, May 28th in the CAA at 9:30 a.m. Your child should arrive at school at the normal dropoff time. Parents will enter Gate 8 in the CAA, no earlier than 9 a.m.

After the ceremony, the students can go home with their parents as this will be their last day of school. The fifth graders do not attend classes on May 29th.


Each family can have up to 6 family members attend the ceremony.


Siblings can participate in the continuation ceremony. Please email their teacher and the Primary Office to let them know beforehand; siblings are expected to stay in school for the rest of the day.
