Dear 4th Grade Parents,
We hope you all enjoyed a nice long weekend. This Veteran’s Day marked the 100 year anniversary of the end of WWI and as always, was a wonderful time to reflect on those who have served this great nation. We have an exciting week coming up! On Thursday we have our Music Concert at the Higley Center. This is an exciting event for students to showcase what they have been learning in music, and we are looking forward to seeing the culmination of their hard work.
