Today, we celebrated a milestone that feels both joyful and bittersweet at Fillmore Elementary.

Our fifth graders walked across the stage at their promotion ceremony, and with each smile, hug, and proud glance, we were reminded just how much they have grown. These students arrived as little learners with big dreams, and now they leave our halls as confident, capable young people ready for middle school and all the adventures ahead.

We have watched them learn, lead, laugh, persevere, and support one another through every challenge and celebration. They have filled Fillmore with energy, kindness, curiosity, and unforgettable memories.

While it is hard to say goodbye, we could not be prouder of the amazing individuals they are becoming. No matter where they go next, they will always be part of the Fillmore family, because once a Flyer, always a Flyer. 💙💛🚀

Congratulations, fifth graders. Your future is bright, and we cannot wait to see all the incredible things you will accomplish

Today, Fillmore’s halls were filled with something truly special. ❤️

Former Flyers returned home in their graduation gowns, walking the same hallways where their dreams first began. Our students lined the halls cheering them on, eyes wide with excitement, seeing a future version of themselves in every cap and gown that passed by.

For our graduates, it was a full-circle moment. For our youngest Flyers, it was a glimpse of what is possible.

At Fillmore, we don’t just watch students grow for a few years — we carry them in our hearts long after they leave our classrooms. Seeing these graduates come back reminded us that every book read, every lesson learned, every encouraging word, and every small moment matters.

Once a Flyer, always a Flyer. 🚀💙💛

📚 APB: The Great Library Book Roundup!
It’s that time of year again! We need your help getting our beloved books back to their home on the library shelves.

📅 The Deadline
Please ensure all library books are returned on or before May 15.

🕵️‍♂️ Search Tips
Books have a way of hiding when they don't want the story to end! We recommend checking:
The usual suspects: Under beds, behind couches, and in those overstuffed backpacks.
On the go: Check the back seat or trunk of the car.
The Village: Ask co-parents, grandparents, or babysitters if a book accidentally hitched a ride to their house.

⚠️ The Fine Print (Literally)
Missing Books: Any books not found during our final inventory will be assessed a fine for the full value of the book.
Found it late? No problem! If a "lost" book is found and returned later, the fine will be completely deleted from your child’s account.

🎟️ Return for Rewards!
We want to make this fun! If all of your child's books are turned in during the week of May 15, they will be entered into our Yearly Library Raffle for a chance to win some awesome prizes!
Let’s get those shelves filled back up! Thank you for supporting our school library. 📖✨
