5th Grade Celebration

Dear Families,


Well, it’s our final quarter of 5th grade and we wanted to send out a reminder about our End of Year Plans.

Thank you for sending in pictures of your 5th graders. Just a reminder that we’re planning on preparing a slide show that includes photographs we’ve taken at our various 5th grade events as well as two photos of each student (one of them as a baby and one of them as a 5th grader).  At the end of the day (around 2:30) will be a slideshow presentation of all the fifth graders in the gym. 



We’re also going to have a last-day celebration on June 4th at Tallman Park.  We’ll be taking school buses – leaving Gold Rush at10:45 and returning by 2:15.  Families (moms, dads, siblings, grandparents, etc.) are more than welcome to meet us at the park – pack a picnic and come on along!  It has become a wonderful tradition - time for kids to play games, chat across classroom lines, and just enjoy each other before they leave Gold Rush.  Students are welcome to bring sports equipment that you deem appropriate.  Rev Track is now open for you to electronically sign up to give permission and to help with the bus fee.  To access, click here: Rev Track Sign Up

Also, as a surprise this year, we would like to do a little something special for our fifth graders.  As the slideshow ends in the gym, students will make their way back to classrooms for final goodbyes.  We would love for you to meet Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Bergner, and Mrs. Barta in the Kindergarten Hallway to join a school-wide effort in a graduating Clap Out to send our wonderful kiddos off to Middle School.

A general schedule for the day will be:

10:45 - leave school
11:00 - picnic in the park
2:00 - return to school
2:30 - gather in the Gym to view the slide show (parents are welcome to join us for this also)
3:45 - Goodbyes!

We’d love your help donating chips, cookies and water for the kids to go along with the sub sandwiches we'll provide for the students.  If you’d like to donate any items, please click here:

Thank you again for all your support this year!  It’s been grand.

Ashley Dalcerri, Bev Holtzer, Allison Hawk, Kylee Lautenbach, and Lauren Rayens.
