June 18 is Middle School Visit Day

June 18 will be when Mr. Hostash's and Mrs. Richards' classes will be visiting the middle school to get a small taste of what life will be like in the middle school.  They will get to practice opening a locker, see that 3 minutes is actually a long time to switch classes, meet Mr. Reeve the middle school principal and possibly other sixth grade staff members.  Don't forget to ask them about their experience!
