2024 - 2025 5th Grade EVENTS

The 5th grade year at Bird Rock Elementary is an especially exciting time for our kids! There are a number of fun and charitable activities planned for our students throughout the year and none of it can be done without the help and support of parent volunteers. 

 

The purpose of these events is not only to give 5th grade students a fun last year of elementary school but also to help support and strengthen friendships, which will benefit all of our kids in their transition to

middle school. 

 

We are working to finalize the list of dates for the 2024-2025 school year and expect to have a similar list of events as prior years. Please check back frequently for any updates.

2024 -2025 5th Grade Donations & Sponsorship

Expenses for the 5th grade activities are traditionally covered by 5th grade parents. As we have done in the past, we are asking for sponsors to help defray some of these expenses. There will be other fundraising opportunities throughout the year to help support the school and we also receive some funding from the Bird Rock Foundation.

 

 

Money from all these sources goes directly toward 5th grade expenses, which includes everything from the fun team building events, 5th grade promotion, to offering scholarships which ensure all 5th grade students are able to participate in these events. Almost every 5th grade event will be held on Wednesdays shortly after school lets out.

 

 

Even with the support of our sponsors and the foundation, the majority of expenses are paid for through donations from 5th grade families. The 5th Grade Committee is requesting a donation of $200/student. We are able to reduce the requested donation amount per student thanks to our sponsors and will not be increasing the donation ask from last year. Please note: the requested donation amount does not include any sleepover events if students elect to participate. Only those students attending will be asked for a donation to cover those events.

2024-2025 Scholarships

 

We understand that every family has different situations and want to make sure that all 5th graders have the opportunity to participate in these events regardless of circumstances. If you would like to receive a funded scholarship for your 5th grader, please email eventscholarships@birdrockfoundation.org with the subject line ‘2024-2025 5th Grade Events’ and the information regarding your student. The foundation will make sure that a donation on behalf of your student is confidentially funded. Thank you again, to our generous sponsors.
