Our 5th graders are almost at the end of their first quarter! They have all shown great growth and perseverance! Please be checking in with your student as they bring items home that have been graded. Your student should also be having conversations with you as you look at the weekly/bi-weekly grade report that is emailed to you. Teach them how to be proactive not reactive to their grades throughout the quarter. 

We have been doing many desk, binder, and locker checks in 5th grade this past week. Encourage your fifth grader to keep their items in the right sections and to empty their take home folder each evening! 

This Wednesday is our October Chapel. Our fifth graders are taking on a bigger leadership role this year, and would love to have you there to see them grow! 

If you are having your student log on to googleclassroom at home, here is a helpful video of how to log on in steps.
