My Project

Wow! Time sure does fly when you're...learning! Our fourth grade students have learned so much this year. They've worked hard, played hard, laughed hard, and most importantly learned so much!

We want to celebrate all the learning, memories, and fun we've had this year.

We want to bring our four fourth grade classes together and have a day no one will forget anytime soon. That's close to 100 students coming together to celebrate their learning!

As warm sunny days get closer and closer sometimes focusing gets harder and harder - especially for 9 and 10 year olds! We want to fit in some last minute learning disguised as fun! What fourth grader can resist using what they've learned to be the first to escape a reading or math escape room? What fourth grader can resist completing a beach themed science experiment? What fourth grader can resist a good ol' best classroom wins style competition? Not the fourth graders I know!

Your donation will help us end the year on the highest of highs! It will help buy decorations so the kids walk into a pod that's been transformed into a beach. They'll have a classroom that isn't just their normal classroom but a classroom ready to transport them to a beach. Your donation will purchase each student a beach ball that they can have their friends sign!

Thank you so much for being willing to help us give our fourth graders the summer send-off they deserve!
