BETA Club Donates Supplies to Berrien County Animal Shelter

The 5th Grade BETA Club members came together to collect goods for the Berrien County Animal Shelter as part of their Community Project. The collected goods included cat and dog food, paper towels and cleaning supplies for the shelter.

Welcome to 5th Grade

We have a lot to learn and accomplish throughout the school year, and our expectation is that all of our students will be successful. To ensure this happens good behavior is a priority. We expect students to be respectful and responsible, always try their best and complete all assignments to the best of their ability, cooperate with others, follow directions, come prepared, be organized, and follow our individual classroom rules.

You can help your child to have a very successful year by:

Making sure your student is well rested and nourished when he or she arrives at school.
Making sure your child comes to school with the necessary supplies.
Talking about school in a positive manner. Be interested in what your child is doing.
Letting us know if there are any special concerns or needs regarding your child.
Helping your child set up a successful homework routine that works with your schedule. Make sure he or she has a designated time and place, the necessary supplies and adult assistance if needed.
