Where Each Day is Momentous

Fifth grade: the “bridge to middle school” and the senior year of elementary school! In fifth grade we also strive to achieve a higher level of responsibility, organization and independence, knowing these are skills they need not only this year but especially throughout the rest of their lives. Your child will build on the skills they have developed in fourth grade and study many of the same subjects at a higher level. That means big gains in academics, and often growth spurts and hormone surges.

In fifth grade, this means all these facets of life and learning come together in a year that is rich with friends, learning, and fun. My hope is that your child reach his or her full potential both academically and personally through our year long experience together. Please do not hesitate to stay in contact with me and I promise to do the same. Each child in this classroom is a special, unique individual with limitless capabilities!  Thank you for the privilege to spend this year with your child!
