  Welcome Back to School!!

          Welcome to Eisenhower School!  We hope this letter finds you well and enjoying your last days of summer.  We are looking forward to getting back into the swing of things with in-person learning, meeting you, and hearing all about your exciting summer adventures.

 

          Fifth grade will be a time when we will continue to learn, succeed, and grow as a classroom community, as well as independent learners.  You will be encouraged to accomplish goals, work with others, and use critical thinking skills.  We will explore a variety of new activities while we continue to provide support and encouragement for one another.

 

Although we will supply any materials that are needed, below you will find a suggested supply list for both our classes just in case you would like something more personalized!

Remember school starts on Thursday, September 9th!

We can’t wait to see all your smiling faces as you start your first year as an Eisenhower Eagle!

 

Warm regards,

Ms. DeSesso (Math, Science, Social Studies)

Mrs. Arnold (Language Arts)

Mrs. Edwards (Science/Social Studies)
