Eaglette - June 7, 2018
Message from the Principals
Dear Families,
It is hard to believe the year has come to an end.
We have so many wonderful things to be proud of again this year!
It has been an honor and a pleasure to work with the PTA and the school
community this year. So many wonderful accomplishments have come to
fruition! Our teamwork, persistence, communication and collaboration have
brought many positive experiences for our children. We look forward to
our planning for the upcoming year. We would like to extend a special
thank you to all of our PTA Board Members and parents who have supported our
programs and students throughout the year.
We will close out the year with some fun with Field Day, our Annual Variety
Show, and the infamous Staff vs 6th Grade Volleyball game.
We would like to recognize our sixth graders who are
moving up to middle school and salute all their hard work as Gunston
Eagles! Each student has completed their individual goals and will move
on to challenge their knowledge. We would also like to recognize all of
our students for completing another ROCKIN’ year at Gunston! We look
forward to seeing each of you in August. We encourage
you to participate in our Summer Reading Bingo and Summer Math Calendar. Please join us for Milk and Cookies on Wednesday, August 5th from 6:30pm - 7:30pm. Have
a safe and wonderful summer!
Hugs! ... Mrs. Rogers & Ms. Rucinski
