Dear Fifth Grade Parents,
June brings a time for new beginnings and celebration for things achieved. We are busily preparing for our Fifth Grade Closing Ceremony. The program will be at 9:00 am on June 13, 2012 at Cosby High School. The fifth grade and resource teachers and administration will be attending the ceremony. We are asking that parents bring their child promptly at 8:30 am to Cosby High School. There the child’s homeroom teacher will take attendance and get them lined up for the ceremony. Parking at Cosby should be adequate for the event, but please remember to give yourself enough time to get in and find a seat prior to the 9:00 am start. The assembly will begin promptly at 9:00 am.
The Fifth Grade Closing Ceremony is a milestone event. We are asking the boys to wear long pants and a nice shirt and the girls to wear a dress, skirt and blouse or pants outfit. Please no high heels as the children will be walking across a stage.
We realize that some students may not be able to ride with their family to the ceremony due to prior engagements. With this in mind, it is imperative that we get an accurate count of those students who may not be able to ride with their parents/family to the ceremony. Please fill out the form below and return to the classroom teacher by June 5, 2012. We will then schedule transportation as needed.
If you choose to take your child after the ceremony, please indicate this on the form below. This count will help us prepare for the sign out process from Cosby. Currently, we are planning to have the children exit the auditorium and gather with their teacher in the commons. Your child’s teacher will personally hand to you the child’s real certificate when you come to take them as an efficient way of checking out.
We look forward to seeing you on June 13th at Cosby High School to share this joyful occasion.
Sincerely,
Ms. Cooper and Ms. Bowers
· Please indicate how your child will both arrive and depart from the ceremony.
