Dear 6th grade Parents and Students,
Thanks for a great year! We really enjoyed working with all of you and wish you a happy, healthy summer break.
To avoid the summer learning slump, encourage your students to read every day and practice their math skills. You will find below, a link to a free iReady math portal for students to practice their math skills.
The Annual 6th Grade Games will take place on Monday, June 17 from 12-2:15. We will be competing by classroom for the Golden Cup! If you would like to volunteer at one of the events, please let us know:)
We are in need of food donations for the party we hold afterwards. Please bring the following to share:
Campbell: Sweet treats (cupcakes, etc.)
Jessie: Water, juice boxes, Capri Suns etc.
Waters: Salty snacks (chips, etc.)
Greetings Families!
The end of 3rd Term is nearing quickly. There are many students that have missing assignments and it is negatively affecting their overall grade. Please check Home Access with your student to make sure they are up to date with work completion.
Thank you!

Hello!
State Testing for 6th graders will be the week of May 6-10 this year. Please make sure that your child brings ear buds/headphones to school for the testing week if they would prefer not to use the school provided headphones. We will be having a new testing schedule that will involve full day testing with breaks/snacks/activities. This will allow us to complete testing in one week rather than the 3-4 weeks that has occurred in the past. If you have any questions, please feel free to email/call.
Amy, Carly, Sarah
Greetings!
Please check with your student about supplies. Many students are running out of pencils, paper and other such items. In LA, many students are in need of 2nd spiral notebooks and highlighters.
Thank you!
