Fifth Grade Graduation

Sixth Grade Graduation
June 16th and June 17th
Fifth and Sixth grade graduation will be coming to you! A Schoharie Elementary Bus will be decked out and loaded up with gifts and Certificates of Advancement we will deliver to your special graduates.
The sixth grade graduation bus will visit Schoharie and the areas of 443 and 146 on Tuesday, 6/16. It will visit the Central Bridge and Esperance areas on Wednesday 6/17. We are visiting every home of each child, so we anticipate we will be travelling the full day each day. Please be patient in anticipation of our arrival. Teachers will communicate with you the method they will use to send location updates throughout the day. Please direct questions to your child’s teacher.
The fifth grade graduation information will be very similar to sixth grade. Teachers will communicate out details as soon as we are able to finalize arrangements. Thank you for your understanding as we work quickly to ensure they have this special moment.
Jr/Sr High School Transition Activities
Please note all current fifth and sixth grade students will receive information from Mrs. Kenyon regarding transitioning over the summer. All children will receive opportunities to become familiar with the school, lockers and schedules, and engage in a “social” to the extent that social distancing will allow.
