End of Quarter!

The first quarter has flown by! Porfolios will be read and report cards will be sent home in early November. The fifth grade teachers are looking forward to meeting with parents on one of the two November conference days: November 5 or November 13. If you need to make an appointment, please call Mrs. Conkling in the middle school office.

Community Service

Community Outreach

The two fifth grade girls’ classes enjoyed recycling Calvert’s paper the past two months. In November Ms. Radways class takes over!

Another community service activity taken on by the fifth graders was the annual UNICEF drive. After discussing the programs of UNICEF and viewing a video, teams of two visited the lower school classes on Wednesday to hand out orange collection boxes and explain some of the children’s programs funded by UNICEF, such as immunizations, malaria nets and clean water programs.

On the last Friday of October, students had the option of dressing up in costume or dressing down in orange and black for a $2 donation to UNICEF.
