PASSAGE INFORMATION: It's Passage Week!
Your student has their day and time and now you need to know...
|
Many sixth graders will opt to dress for the presentation. If they want to bring a change of clothes, that's great!
They have worked incredibly hard and are ready. We are confident you will truly enjoy your student's Passage. |
Our sixth graders experienced two Human Growth and Development hours of instruction last week Thursday and Friday. Mrs. Gahl-Sweeney asked us to share this information with you. She mentioned these resourced to our sixth graders and it includes information for our fifth grade families as well.
Our fifth graders will have a one hour Human Growth and Development session on June 2nd.
Hot Dog Day is next week, on Thursday, June 2nd. All students will receive a hot dog meal (turkey, vegan, or gluten free) AND a t-shirt paid for by the PTO. ALL students will be dismissed at noon with their hot dog meal and spread out across the Lake Bluff campus to meet up with family and friends and eat lunch together. Please know there is nothing to sign up for this year, your student will automatically get a hot dog meal and a t-shirt. Please bring a blanket and your own lunch and join your student/s from 12:00-1:00 for this all-school-picnic. If you'd like to order a t-shirt for yourself, you can do so here.
There are many individuals working together to create a memorable and meaningful completion ceremony for our 6th graders on the last day of school, Thursday, June 9th. Please see this brief communication from members of that committee. Have you already submitted the two photos for your 6th grader? If not, please do as ASAP!
Lake Bluff's Tournament of Words - UMAMI won! CRISP and UMAMI were the two finalists. Kevin Peterka has again brought this opportunity for our students to learn and celebrate different words. Check out the website here. You'll see the results of the latest-round and can watch MAC 3 Birch students' commentary about the match-ups and winners.
