Dear Wolf Pack,
Can you believe there is only 1 more week of school left in the 2023-2024 school year?! We are making every moment count!
Last week, we had our band concert. It was amazing to see how talented our 5th, and 6th graders are. Thank you to Mr. Sarisky and Ms. Porter for their hard word and dedication to our students!
Additionally, our 3rd graders, led by Ms. Peterson and Ms. Hood, demonstrated their amazing skills on the recorders. They've worked so hard to develop their musical skills this year.
This week, our grade level picnics returned to Oak Hill - with an added bonus. During our grade level picnics, our students are highlighting how they grew within a certain Portrait of a Graduate attribute. Students are about to discuss how they grew and show evidence to prove it! We are so proud of our Wolves.
We hope this last week of school is a great one for you. We are looking forward to celebrating all of our students and their growth this year over the next few days.
In partnership,
Kelly Durso, Principal
Cali Loewenberg, Assistant Principal
