Good Evening Howard Families,

The link to the fifth-grade promotion video will be emailed to all the fifth-grade parents. A HUGE THANK YOU TO NASREEN HIDER (mother of Ameer Hider) for working so hard to put together this beautiful video to help capture some memories!

Also, just as a quick reminder: tomorrow (Tuesday, June 9th) from 12:00-2:00 pm, we will have a drive-up distribution to congratulate all the 5th graders on their promotion!!!!!! Please remember that this will be in a drive-up format in front of the school on N. York St. For your safety, please remember that all students and parents must remain in their vehicles at all times and may not enter the school building. Our teachers are excited to see you! Please feel free to decorate your vehicles if you like!
