Due to a winter storm watch issued by the National Weather Service, all District Five Schools and offices will be closed on Friday, January 10. ❄️ Friday, January 10 will be an e-Learning day for all District Five students. 💻 This decision was made in the best interest of safety for all D5 students and staff, as snow, sleet and ice is predicted by late Friday morning, and roads will likely be unsafe for buses, families or student drivers to travel 🚌❄️🚗
Teachers will be in touch with students regarding all e-Learning assignments 📚📝. All after school and weekend activities are also canceled.📆
We appreciate your patience and understanding, as safety is always our top priority in District Five! #WeAreD5
Come along to the Polar Express! 🚂
K4 students were “Certified Christmas Cookie Testers” in the ACA Library Bakeshop today. They enjoyed a fun story and decorated cookies with Miss Koon. Cookie testers gave them two thumbs up! 🎄🍪
Ms. Burns’ class & Ms. Sweatt’s 5th grade classes enjoyed having Sean Lindsay (Mrs. Lindsay’s son!) as a guest speaker to discuss his basketball 🏀 career & give insight on how to be successful in college, especially as a student athlete!
What a festive day! Mrs. Grant, Mrs. Clary, Mrs. Nelson, and Mrs. Gardner’s classes joined together for a fun-filled collaboration to create the ugliest Christmas🎄sweater cookies. The students not only designed their unique cookies but also shared their families Christmas traditions. 💙💚
Just a reminder that Friday, December 20th is a half day for students. We will dismiss at 11:30. 🕦
Remember, on half days there are no half day PCD or K4 classes. ACA Afterschool is also not held on half days.
We will see our students back on Tuesday, January 7th. We wish you and your family a safe and wonderful break!
Mrs. Di Paolo's 2nd graders worked in groups today to solve a Gingerbread Mystery 🔍 for their reading 📖 activity.
