First Branch News!
Hello First Branch,
Happy June! We have some exciting days still to come in First Branch. As these events occur, our daily schedule is subject to shift. Our teachers are working hard to balance schedule shifts and finish up academic units of study. This week K-3rd families will receive notification about class placement for next year. The purpose of this is to allow our current students in grades 1st-3rd a chance to mix and mingle with their new classmates. For classrooms with new teachers joining us, a familiar First Branch member will be a part of this experience. Below is our classroom teacher assignments for the 2023-2024 school year.
