5th Grade Activities
Welcome to 5th Grade! Fifth grade marks a special time in your child's school life for growth, transition, and celebration, culminating in the Moving Up Ceremony in June. We have many exciting activities planned this year for the 5th graders.
5th Grade Dues are $170 per 5th grade student.
Along with a contribution from the PTA, the dues will be used to cover the costs of all 5th grade events, the yearbook, a class t-shirt and a class sweatshirt for each student. Financial Aid is available – please email our School Psychologist for more information.
We will be placing an order for special 5th grade sweatshirts and t-shirts to be worn by our 5th graders for upcoming events, including a photo for the Yearbook. In order to guarantee correct sizing and timely delivery, please pay your dues and submit your child's sizes by September 1st. The shirts will also be worn at the Moving Up Ceremony in June, so consider sizing up. Please note, PTA membership is required for fifth grade orders.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation! Please contact Ingrid Birkhofer, Rachel Rilander or Sam April with any questions.
