Attention 5th grade parents!!

Also, before you drop the pictures, please create a folder (within the folder) with your student's name. Drop your photos in the name-labeled subfolder. The end date to send photos is May 23rd. Thank you for your help with this.
Thank you so much to everyone who has signed up to help with the 5th Grade Farewell activities so far! There are still a few more spaces that need to be filled.
