********************
Hello 6th grade families,
Well, we all should pat ourselves on the back for getting these kiddos to the last week of school so happy, and they are ready believe me! I want to personally thank each and every one of you for your support this year. Your kindness, thoughtfulness, and generosity has been overwhelming and I am truly grateful. This is my second year with your students and I could not be more proud of the young adults they are becoming. We have learned a lot of lessons this year and looking forward, I see a bright future for each and every one of them. Seriously, they are smart, clever, kind, and ridiculously funny-that goes a long way in the real world, am I right?
Here are the important dates and information you need to know for this coming week:
Monday

*No backpacks, only day pack that will hold daily supplies

*The students have been working very hard and we have some wonderful people being displayed and shared about. Living Wax Museum presentations will be from 3-3:45 for all families that can attend, walk around, and see and hear about our amazing characters from ancient civilizations. Thank you for your support.
Wednesday
Wednesday is the 6th Grade Field Day at NorthRidge. We will hike there and spend part of the time playing kickball and part of the time swimming. They should bring a bag/or backpack that they will carry on the hike. They should have a snack, water bottle, swimming suit, towel, sunscreen, and hat. Memberships will not be used during this time. Students will only have access to the pool area (no concession stand, racquetball or basketball). We will be in two smaller groups for safety and fun. We will switch at the halfway mark with transition time included. We will make it back to school between 12:00 and 12:30 where we will provide pizza and juice boxes/pouches. Around 1:30 we will begin organizing and preparing the 6th graders for the graduation ceremony. This isn't a real fun time, however it is a very necessary process for Thursday.
Thursday
Students will come to school just as any other day. They will enter through the front doors and go to their homerooms for attendance. They do not need to bring anything on this day, except family! Afterwards, we will immediately start lining up to enter promptly at 9:30. The ceremony should last around an hour with the presentation of the students at the end. We will have brunch items for all to enjoy provided by 5th grade families. There will be time to eat, visit and take pictures. At 11:00 am all 6th Grade students will be dismissed from school. Please be sure to plan for this. There is a picnic to follow for all 6th grade students and families to continue the celebrations. This is not a SCE event and there will be no teacher attending.
Whew...this is it!! I am so excited for these students as they have worked incredibly hard all year long. I will miss them terribly.
