First Week: 9/6

Dear 5th Grade Families,

I hope you had a fun and restful summer and are ready to start another amazing year at Lincoln Elementary School. I am so glad to have met many of you at the Ice Cream Social and am looking forward to the first days of school! This year will be such a memorable one for you and your family as well as for our class family!

Parents you will get much of the information needed for this year at Back to School Night, but I encourage you and your child to read through the Classroom Information Slides. Here's a LINK! This deck is filled with information about the year, important dates, and what we will study.  Most of our classroom information will come home via our folders or this Blog. 

One important piece of information about my classroom is that we are peanut free. Please do not bring anything with peanuts for snack time as we will be eating in our classroom during snack time. Thank you for helping us keep our classroom a safe place for all our classmates!


If you have any questions or concerns for me, please contact me at kgriffith@stjoebears.com.

See you soon!
Kelsey Griffith
