Accordion Folder:
Please refer to our Organization Tips on the Digital Planner Page for ideas on how to help your child keep their accordion folder organized.
In 5th grade, we pride ourselves in preparing our students for middle school. You can expect the curriculum to be rigorous and challenging. Students are expected to come to school ready to be engaged and put forth their best effort. We encourage students to develop autonomy and self-advocacy.
5th grade works hard!
We understand the value of time with families and that our students have a lot of extracurricular activities. For that reason, we do not assign homework. Students are given time in class to complete their work. If they are bringing a significant amount of work home, then it is because they did not use their class time appropriately, or they may need a little extra help that you can provide.
Each class has signature projects that we are so excited for every year. Each project will have its own set of expectations that will be communicated upfront and throughout the duration of the project. This includes how much time will be allocated both in class and at home.
