Dear
Canyon View Families,
The
end of the school year is finally upon us and the last few weeks of school are
always the busiest! The K-5 teachers are
currently wrapping up another great year of learning, and a lot of time and
effort are going into making the final days of the school year special for each
and every one of our Canyon View students.
Over the next 13 days, our students will be finishing up their grade
level assessments and projects, and their teachers will be working on third
trimester report cards.
Last
week, our 5th graders performed for their parents their
end-of-the-year musical, Mulan Jr. The classes have been working on this
project since November, and the performance was a smashing success! In fact, everyone liked it so much, that we
had the 5th graders perform it again at a school-wide assembly last
Friday. The levels of excitement,
engagement, and transfer of skills to an authentic performance task was
outstanding, and we want to give a huge congratulations to the students and
Mrs. Moore for the work they put into making the performance such a special
experience.
On
Friday, May 19 at 8:15 a.m. we’ll be hosting our final Spirit Assembly where we
will be recognizing groups of hard working students who have put forth
tremendous effort and consistently showed perseverance and demonstrated good
character throughout the year.
Publically recognizing students is an important part of who we are as a
school, and we are always looking for creative ways to celebrate our children
and build an inviting and supportive learning community! If you can make it to our final assembly of
the year we would love to see you there!
Finally,
I want to thank all of our amazing volunteers who have helped us throughout the
year. Whether you were able to volunteer
in the classroom or help out during one of our many school-wide events, we are
sincerely grateful for your contributions and your unwavering commitment to our
children. To show our appreciation,
we’ll be hosting our annual Volunteer Breakfast in the library on Thursday, May
18 at 7:30AM. Please spend some time
with our staff and other Canyon View parents as we wind down the year. Our Volunteer Breakfast will be followed by
our final FFO Community meeting which will begin at 8AM. We hope to see you
there!
Have
a wonderful weekend!
