Dear 5th Grade families,


I am writing to let you know that the 5th graders’ report cards will be ready for pick-up at the office this week, as well as a Christmas goodie bag for them, and materials for students if needed. If you are not able to pick up the report cards, they will be mailed to you next week. Linked below is also our schedule and review of assignments for the week. Please note that in our schedule we have All School Mass on Tuesday morning, and on Wednesday (Pajama Day) Mrs. Murray will read to the 5th graders via zoom at 9:30. 
If you have not already done so, will you please drop off the following for your child:-cereal box project -positive name adjective poster-animal ‘food chain’ artwork


I wish that I could see the 5th graders very much, but understand the circumstances and importance of everyone staying safe. 
Please let me know if you have any questions.


Best, Crystal Hewitt

What Our Families are Saying

"The supportive teachers at SPN played a big role in preparing me for high school and helping me understand what to expect. They encouraged me to ask questions and seek help when needed, which made me more confident in my learning. Thanks to them, I entered freshman year already familiar with many concepts and effective study habits that have helped me stay on top of my work. SPN also taught me valuable life skills that I still use today, helping me succeed academically, build strong friendships, and maintain my overall well-being."
— Tibby Horvath, SPN Class of 2022
"We are very satisfied with the SPN community, something that is important to our family. My children feel safe and comfortable with SPN. Our family feels connected with the SPN community from parents and families to the staff and faculty. My children and we as parents have made healthy and positive relationships with other families from school. We share time outside of school with other families which brings a level of connectedness I don't know if we would have elsewhere"
— SPN Parent
"My children are experiencing community in other ways than just friends and playdates. Faith Families is an example of community, interacting with students from all grade levels, and learning and creating for others outside of SPN. Field trips to Kids Against Hunger or the Alameda Food Bank where they work and see firsthand how their efforts help others less fortunate, for those who are in need of support. Community is not just our SPN ‘bubble,’ and that is what SPN demonstrates and provides– opportunity to explore a bigger community."
