Welcome parents to this new idea of being informed

The Fifth grade team will be starting a blog to inform parents and students what is going on in the class room and what up coming events are happening.
Once a week there will be a post of what the students are studying that week, when assignments are due and when test are.
This is a new system we are trying out to see if we can inform the parent, students and teachers all at the same time.
