Happy Friday.... we had a great time at Dillo Quest! Your kiddo is almost guaranteed to be exhausted, but with lots of great stories to share! Thanks for reading our update this week.
Now that we are a few weeks into the second grading period, we encourage your child to stay on top of any corrections and/or missing work they need to complete. Waiting until the end of the nine-weeks is always chaotic for teachers and students, plus make-up work is less relevant to your child’s learning the longer it takes them to complete it. To check grades online, please follow these directions. 5th grade is going to Inner Space Caverns NEXT WEEK! (Briles-Mayer-Wirht Tues. 11/6, Cotten-Wilder-Salome Wed. 11/7). Buses will leave Hill around 9am and return around 1pm. Parents are welcome to meet us there -- guided tours will begin at 10:00, 10:15, and 10:30. We will be eating at the caverns, so please be sure to pack a lunch and water bottle for your child. We are thrilled to announce that 5th grade is running a school-wide donation drive through November 16, collecting both non-perishable foods and gently used or new coats to the Central Texas Food Bank and Coats for Kids. Why coats? When families have to choose between heat and food, they buy food. 5th grade wants to encourage every family to bring:
5th grade will be attending the Austin Symphony Young People’s Concert on Tuesday, November 13. Buses depart from Hill at 9:00am, and we’ll return around 11:30. Unfortunately, no parent chaperones are permitted on this trip. Murchison and the area magnet schools are presenting to Hill 5th graders on Friday, November 16. Check out the Middle School Info! tab of our 5th grade website for more details! We’ve added a Middle School Info! tab to our 5th grade website. We’ll update it as information comes in, and link to any changes in our weekly update. Check it out, there’s already a lot of information added! The 5th grade fundraiser is under way!
