Hi everyone, happy Friday! We're finishing up our fifth week of school already, and are just over halfway through the first grading period. Thanks for reading our weekly updates!
Progress reports for all subjects will go home next week, either digitally or in paper format. Please make sure that the email address you have on file with the office is up-to-date so that all gradebook communications will be received. As a reminder, corrections and/or make-up work can be submitted for all assignments with grades below 70% to bring up to passing. We encourage students to take care of corrections ASAP so the end of the nine-weeks isn’t overwhelming. We will always go out of our way to help students who work hard and are diligent in this process! Parent-teacher conferences are scheduled for Monday, October 14, though some teachers are offering conferences on an alternate timeline. You will meet with your child’s homeroom teacher, who will reach out with their conference schedule and how to sign-up in the next week or so! **If you’ve had a recent 504, ARD, or other meeting with your child’s teachers, that may count as the parent-teacher conference. Note from Ms. Briles about ELA homework for the Briles-Wirht-Mayer trio: click here. Green Team wants to give a shout out to all of the 5th graders helping take out the compost for PK-2nd, Essential Areas classrooms, the Office, Teachers Lounge, and many more!! If your child is interested in this important daily commitment, please have them talk to Ms. Briles. Students can choose to take out compost for their assigned location either before morning assembly, during recess (marathon laps excused), or during After School Care or before walking home. Dillo Quest information packets went home in Wednesday folders two weeks ago. The due date for all necessary paperwork and payment ($85) is Friday, October 18. If you would like to pay online, check out this PDF for directions, or go directly to school cash online. Scholarships are available, so contact your child's homeroom teacher if needed. If you need another info packet, please check the Downlads tab of the 5th grade website, or you can ask Mr. Mayer for another copy. As a reminder, we are requesting a few Dillo Dads join us on the trip -- please see packet for interest form. It's very important that if your child takes any medication that the medication form is filled out completely. It's up to your child's homeroom teacher to manage all medications, and we need all information filled out fully. Finally, we aim for 100% Dillo Quest attendance, despite the fact that we know there is always some anxiety surrounding the experience. Please reach out if you or your child have questions or concerns. Please check out the 5th grade calendar for upcoming dates (no school for students on Monday!). Thanks for reading, and have a great weekend! ~5th Grade Team
