Dear “Wonder”ful Fourth Grader,

Get ready for a year filled with kindness, change, flexibility, growth, and wonder! We are excited to see you on the first day of school. (there is no open house this year due to the construction.)

 Mrs. Tennison, Mrs. Pratt and Mrs. Hausman have spent their summers outside bike riding, camping, hiking, swimming, and traveling.  Recently, we have been getting our own kids ready for their new school years in elementary, middle school, high school, and college!  We are eager to check out the new look for St. Anthony Park Elementary and want to remind you that you are in for a unique experience this year as the school remodel continues.  We may not be in the same spaces, but we will still have many opportunities for fun and community building.

You will make giant leaps this year in fourth grade. Some of our special events include field trips to Belwin, the Minnesota History Center, the Stages Theater, Fort Snelling, and the Minneapolis Institute of Art. We will also be taking a riverboat ride along the Mississippi River and a having a visit from the Bakken Museum.  What are you looking forward to this year?

Parents, please mark down on your calendar Wednesday, September 13th at 5:30 p.m.  We will be hosting a 4th grade informational meeting in the multi purpose room.  We also invite you to stop by immediately before or after school during the first week to see your child’s room and meet the teachers.    

Cool Beans!  See you Tuesday, September 5th.
