Fifth grade, the final year at Bonny Slope, is a special year for our oldest students. Several programs and events are designed to help commemorate and celebrate the achievements of the departing class. Volunteers are invited to participate on the planning committee and/or for specific activities as listed below:
Outdoor School
Outdoor School provides each student with hands-on learning experiences which are integrated with school curricula and promotes learning about, and appreciation for, the natural world. This year’s 5th grade class will have the opportunity to attend Camp Wi-Ne-Ma, one of four residential education camps of the Norwest Regional Education Service District. General information about the NW Outdoor Science School can be found at www.nwresd.k12.or.us/instrserv/noss and information on Camp Wi-Ne-Ma can be found at www.nwresd.k12.or.us/instrserv/noss/CampWinemaPage.html. Volunteers are needed throughout the year to work with students in fundraising efforts to reduce the cost of this program for each student.
Send-Off Party
This is a fun-filled and special end-of-the-year party for the departing 5th graders. Volunteers are needed for party planning, preparation, food service, activity supervision, and clean up.
Gift to Bonny Slope
5th graders plan and prepare a departing gift to the school so they will be remembered at Bonny Slope in years to come.
