🌸 ☔ 🌷 May Highlights 🌷 ☔ 🌸
We are in the last full month of the 2024-2025 school year! We begin the month with Staff Appreciation, World Language and College and College and Career Weeks. The balance of May is filled with activities and field trips for our students. Our Kindergarteners and 3rd graders will walk to Porter Library, our 2nd Graders will visit The Cleveland Museum of Natural History, and our 3rd Graders will wrap up their studies of different animal adaptations at Lake Erie Nature and Science Center. May is a big month for our 4th graders as they prepare to leave the comfort and familiar surroundings of Westlake Elementary and become more independent "tweens" at Dover Intermediate School. They will treat their parents and families to evening of choral music, and then themselves be treated to an "Instrument Try-On" Day as they prepare for 5th grade band. A visit to Dover Intermediate School towards the end of the month will add to their excitement! Our youngest learners (preschool) will celebrate the end of their school year, some returning to preschool next year, and some moving on to Kindergarten. PTA will round out our month with "Walk to School Days" for all our students. As always, you can keep up with all school events by clicking here.
