Conklin Academy

Good morning, Conklin Families,

Please see the attached flyer for an excellent opportunity for our young basketball athletes to develop and refine their skills. The camp is being led by a talented group of coaches from Jefferson High School and offers a great opportunity for students to learn the fundamentals of the game, improve their abilities, and build confidence on the court.

We encourage any interested students and families to review the information and consider participating.

PYP Exhibition is a culmination of all the 5th graders have learned over the course of their elementary years. They apply all the skills and knowledge they have to complete a final project. Last week we celebrated their work on the IB theme, How We Express Ourselves. What a range of personal expression our students showed! From baking to sports, dancing to visual arts, the 5th grade students showed off who they are and what they've learned. We are proud of them!

Tonight is our Exhibition Celebration Event!
Doors will open at 4:50 and the program begins at 5:00.
Come help us celebrate the hard work of our 5th grade students, their teachers, and their mentors!
