Team Mindcrafters Daily Update - last day of school :(

Parents-

Mrs. Dressel and I want to first take this opportunity to thank each of you for your support in your child's education this year.  We truly appreciate everything you have done to help make this a successful year - from helping your child study, to sending in supplies for parties or projects, to encouraging your child in their learning.  Each school year brings new challenges for your child, and through each success and failure your child grows and matures and learns more about his/herself.  

Academically, this class performed exceptionally well in learning the fourth grade curriculum.  The more we taught them, the more eager they were for a new challenges.  The children demonstrated limitless curiosity and enthusiasm to learn.  This made them such a pleasure to teach.

Beyond showing academic excellence, the students have also demonstrated many other many other qualities that they can take with them wherever they go.  Students showed responsibility, perseverance, honesty, hard wok, empathy, cooperation, and decision making skills which we hope  will carry with them until adulthood.

We hope that you and your child can look back upon this school year with fond memories.  As your child grows we will enjoy reading and hearing about their successes.  In the future, if you or your child are ever around for a school event, please have them stop in and let us know how they are doing.  Also, students can e-mail us as to share what is going on in their lives.

Grade cards.  Grade cards went home with your child this year.  Included in your child's take home materials today are a few reports of their progress with STAR Math, STAR Reading, and Accelerated Reading.

4th Grade Memories.  Each student has a "4th Grade Memories" book to keep.  I have attached a digital version for you as well.  This might be something that would be fun to look back on in years to come.

Staff Talent Show Video.  Our entire staff came together to do another staff video for Talent Show this year.  You can enjoy it here:

Thank you for a great year.  Have a safe and happy summer!
