Cornwall School News 6/5/26

We are in the final stretch of the school year! Last week, our days were a mix of "regular" and "special". The regular part included following our regular schedule, math, writing, recess and snack routines. But there was lots of "special" mixed in. Check out the snapshots below for a glimpse of some of those moments. Next week, there is more "special" than "regular":

Tuesday:

• Step-up Time. K-4 students visit next year's classroom and do an activity with their new teacher
• All School Meeting Talent Show

Wednesday: 5th Grade Promotion

Thursday: All Out Day at Cornwall School

Look for a volunteer sign-up from FOCS to help Cornwall School staff with All Out Day, and everyone please wish for good weather!

In celebration,

Nadya
