4th Grade Newsletter

May 3, 2018

Dear Parents,
If you haven’t had an opportunity to complete the Culture and Climate survey yet,
please spend a few minutes to share your ideas. We use the results to help us know what is
going well, and where we need to make changes. It’s a chance to have your voice heard,
although all responses are anonymous. Surveys must be completed by this Friday. The link to
reach the parent survey is listed below. Kari VanHorn also sent a link to your email address on
Tuesday, 5/1.
