WELCOME BACK!!!

Welcome to your adventure in traditional 6th grade with Mrs. Phelps! I know that you are all very excited about the prospects this year brings. We have the culmination of everything you have learned from Kindergarten through 5th grade being applied to your current studies and to make it even more challenging, you have all of the new material Mrs. Peloquin and I will be imparting on you for the next 180 days.

You have the end of the year traditional 6th grade trip to look forward to as well. We have more information on that for later. This year is also the first year you are eligible to take part in the Culture Club trip with Mrs. Biasiucci which will be heading to Europe this summer! HOW EXCITING! Traditional 6th grade students didn't have these opportunities when I was in school.

Please remember that this page is a resource. I will keep it up to date with pertinent information for our classes. You will find homework, due dates, project information, and of course the popular PHELPS FUN FACTS!!!

I hope you are looking as forward to this year as I am.

Cheers!
