April Updates


Columbia Intermediate Parent Input Forms
In the Friday Folders this past week (April 10) the Parent Input Forms were sent home for class placement at Columbia Intermediate.  This is your chance to communicate the needs of your child prior to class placement for 5th grade.  Please take the time to fill out the form and return to school by April 20.

Mark your calendar for Monday, May 18 at 6:30pm  --- this will be the Columbia Intermediate Parent Information meeting.  The meeting will be in the Columbia Intermediate Cafeteria.  We encourage you to attend this meeting as this will help you help your child in the transition from 4th to 5th grade.   

This is a very exciting time for your child.   The transition can also cause some anxiety.  To assist students in this transition, classes will be visiting CIS the week of May 18 for a tour and interaction with a 5th grade class.  Look for more specific information as the date approaches.



Art to Remember orders due Tuesday, April 14.
