5th Grade Field Trip News

Mark your calendars! April 18th -20th  are the dates for our Camp Wahsega field trip. We always have such a wonderful time and would love for each and everyone of you to join us as chaperones. Our days and nights are filled with hikes through the forest, learning games, campfires, skits, and so much more. Come and take this once in a lifetime opportunity to play in the mountains with your child!
We are offering a fundraising opportunity for any family that would like to participate. This is totally optional. We will be selling pizzas and desserts from Southern Fundraising, a reputable company that we have used in the past. The sale runs from Mon., Jan. 9 - Mon. Jan 30. The sale brochures will be coming home in your child's Mon. folder.
We look forward to an awesome sale and trip with you all.

A Fresh Start to the New Year!

 


Welcome back! We are glad to have you all back here and ready for a great 2012! We have flip flopped our daily schedule to allow Mrs. Green's class to have reading and language arts in the morning and Mrs. Hinson's class to have math, science, and history in the morning as well. The kids were excited for the change!
