Dear Fifth Grader,

Five (5) two plastic/durable pocket folders, one of each in the following colors: red, yellow, blue, orange, and green

Sharpened #2 pencils/ erasers

Highlighter

If you could bring in a box of tissues and band-aids to share with the class, it would be appreciated.

The first day of school is Thursday, August 30th and it will be a full day of school. As a reminder, dress code will apply on the first day of school.

Throughout the school year, you may bring in a water bottle and a healthy snack. Reminder: We are a Nut Free School. We will have time to re-energize ourselves each day. Please keep in mind it may be hot in September.

During the summer, please continue to read on a daily basis. You should also practice your addition, subtraction, multiplication and division facts through the 12X tables.

Have a wonderful summer and we look forward to seeing you on August 30th!
