We have been closely monitoring weather conditions and conferring with other local agencies and our operational staff. All D303 schools will be open and operating on a normal schedule tomorrow–Tuesday, Jan. 21. We anticipate and are working to ensure regular operations on our busing routes and in our school buildings. We encourage staff and families to dress for subzero temperatures. As always, families have the option of keeping their children home if they believe the weather is too cold to be outside.
Our science unit brings about a great deal of excitement in students. We do many hands-on experiments in our electricity, infection detection, and robotics unit. These activities engage students in science.
Throughout the year our social studies focuses on American History. We delve deeply into the Revolutionary War, our political system, and the Civil War. Much of our writing and reading go hand-in-hand with these topics.
Throughout the year, we prepare for middle school by taking on more responsibility for our studies and classroom. We hone our skills in reading, writing, and math to prepare us for the next level.
We conclude our year with the fifth grade picnic. We hope you look forward to your final year in elementary school!
