Dear Families,
Please take a moment to review Dr. Cutaia’s letter regarding the recent tragedy at Robb Elementary School in Texas. Events like this, regardless of distance or location, are challenging to understand and process. Please reach out to the school should you or your family need any additional support.
Next week is Career Week at Orchard Hills!!! Friday, June 3rd is Career Day- dress up as someone with your dream job! Click here: Career Week

Important Information
Car Arrival/Dismissal Reminder- please be mindful of the neighboring houses so we do not block their driveways. As the arrival and dismissal car lines move, please leave space so that when it stops you do not block the driveways. We are so fortunate to be a true neighborhood school and have very supportive neighbors. Showing them the respect back is one kind way we can support them as well.
Parent University - Join us for our next Parent University on Tuesday, June 7th at 6pm at Milford Library. More information and to RSVP, click here.
Room 17 Math Sidewalk Challenge & Summer camp
Library Book Returns- As the year begins to wind down, we are working to collect library books that have been checked out to students this year. Bins will be placed around the school for students to return books and reminder slips will be sent home to students who have books checked out. Please take time to look through your house and bookshelves to ensure library books are returned! The last day that students can check out books from our school library is Friday, June 3. Thank you!
