Congrats Grads!

Congratulations to our 2007 graduates!  We are very proud of you all.  Have a wonderful summer and enjoy middle school.

Final Letter to Parents

Parents,

First off, I hope you all have heard the good news and are extremely proud of your child for their efforts on the CRCT this year. The ENTIRE class passed! Mrs. Powell and I couldn't be more pleased with their performances.

Also, to fill in a few blanks for the next couple days... Tomorrow (Thursday) is our field day. It will start at 9AM and will continue throughout the day. We will enjoy lunch at 11:57-12:27 in the cafeteria. I will travel with a cooler for water/juice if kids have these items. Friday we will have awards in the cafeteria at 12:15 and our Walk of Honor at 1:10. Students are welcome to be signed out after their walk. We will watch a movie in class afterwards.

Finally, thank you very much for the teacher appreciation gifts! We've enjoyed working with your children this year and wish them all the best of luck and much success next year. Thank you all that spent time with the class this year from holiday parties to Camp Fortson. We hope the student and you all have great memories of Varner!

Have an amazing summer,

Nate Benzin & Maria Powell
