Dear Fifth Grade Families,
We know this is a very exciting time of year for our fifth grade students. There are several fun activities about to take place and we want to let you know about them.
• June 4 – June 14 (the last 2 weeks of school) = 1:50 dismissal
• June 6, Wednesday, 10:00 = Hornet Hustle
• June 13, Wednesday, 12:30 = Kickball Game, Staff vs. 5th Grade
• June 14, Thursday, 8:45 – 1:50 = Promotion Ceremony and Swim Party
• Bay-O-Vista is located at 1881 Astor Drive in San Leandro. It is directly off of Lake Chabot Road, 1.6 miles from Roosevelt.
Please have your student in class at 8:10 so we can take attendance and organize ourselves. The Promotion Ceremony begins at 8:45 in the Multi-Purpose Room. Seats go fast so we recommend being seated by 8:30. The students are asked to wear clothing that is at least a step-up from school clothes for the ceremony. The program lasts about 40 minutes. There will be many photo opportunities after the ceremony and before we change clothes and head to Bay-O-Vista Swim Club for our party. We’ll return to the classrooms by 1:40 to allow students time to collect their belongings, stay good-bye, and head off for the summer.
Thank you for your patience and support all year. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us.
Thank you,
Mrs. Lipka, Ms. Julin, Ms. Augusta, and Mr. Fishbaugh
