6th Grade English & Social Studies (Henry E. Huntington Middle School) //www.hehms.us/apps/classes/823752/assignments/ Class Name: 6th Grade English & Social Studies Instructor(s): Stephanie Moffat en-us SchoolSitePro <![CDATA[Due: 05/25/2018]]> //www.hehms.us/homeworkItem4982621 //www.hehms.us/apps/classes/823752/assignments/
Dear Students and Parents,
 
Tomorrow is a minimum day and we will be having our Class Party! Thank you in advance for your donations!
 
It's hard to believe that Tuesday, May 29th marks the last full day of school for 2017-18. The school year has truly flown by. It will be the last day spent with the Period 3/4 students, as Spirit Day and the last day of school are spent with the homeroom classes. 
 
Tuesday the students will be clearing out their lockers and bringing home their 6th grade ELA/SS portfolios. So, please send your student to school with a large bag with handles. Large brown grocery bags, doubled up, work perfectly. If your student cannot bring it home with them, please let me know and I can leave the portfolio in the main office for you to pick up in the summer.
 
It has been a genuine pleasure and privilege spending the school year with your wonderful, bright, talented, caring, fun, and funny children. Each of them is truly special. I will miss this class very much!
 
Thank you for a wonderful year. I wish you and your families a wonderful summer and life's blessings in the years to come.
 
Fondly, Mrs. Moffat
