My Project

This grade 4 group of scholars are an amazing bunch of thoughtful, caring 10- and 11-year-old boys and girls who entered their last year of school in our building in September 2023. They have made it through the ups and downs of COVID including the ripple effect on their learning. They've worked hard as students of our school. I'd like to give them a dance party to remember. This grade 4 class as a whole has worked hard and should be recognized and rewarded for all of their hard work and perseverance through the abnormality of their academic foundational first few years of elementary school. They have endured. They have persevered. They have earned this amazing send off.

This group has collectively really touched my heart in many more ways that I could ever begin to describe.

The grade 4 scholars need to have an EPIC send off when they leave our school. All of them will go onto other schools leaving the comfort of our little building behind. Our school only goes up to 4th grade. They have reached the top. I would like to give them a proper send off to be remembered.

Please and thank you!

Ms. Minichino
Grades 3-5
