We’ve reached the grand finale! Below is your pocket-sized playbill for our last four days. Screenshot it, tape it to the fridge, tattoo it on your arm—whatever works.


Monday, June 2 – Shakespeare on the Green

  • 1:00 p.m. curtain: 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th graders perform A Midsummer Night’s Dream on the north lawn.

  • Family seating opens at 12:45 p.m. Bring a blanket or lawn chair.

  • Costumes come to school labeled in a bag; we’ll handle the quick-changes backstage (a.k.a. the art room).

  • Walkathon Reward #1 after school: Students will partake in an epic ice cream bar with all the flavors and toppings. 

Tuesday, June 3 – Annual Walkathon

  • 10:00 a.m. start: Students run, walk, skip, or dance around the 5 and 1 mile loops.

  • Volunteers arrive 9:00 a.m.

  • Sneakers, refillable water bottle, hat, sunscreen. We’ll supply the cheering section—and lunch! 

  • Optional Half day: Parents are welcome to cut the day short and take the runner home after the walkathon.

Wednesday, June 4 – All-School Field Trip

  • Option A: Meet directly at Lake St. Clair Metropark, Beach Lot, 9:30 a.m.

  • Option B: Drivers/Riders/Chaperones leaving from school 8:45 a.m. sharp.

  • Pack a disposable lunch, swimsuit, towel, sunscreen, and a Metropark pass or $10/car for entry.

Thursday, June 5 – Graduation & Half-Day

  • 11:00 a.m. ceremony in the auditorium (doors open 10:30 a.m.).

  • HALF DAY: Early pickup 12:15 p.m.; no after-care. Expect happy tears and an outrageous number of photos.


Lost & Found last call: Anything unclaimed by Thursday afternoon will be donated to the mysterious realm of single mittens and rogue water bottles.


Questions? Text me, call the office (248-841-0055), or reply to this email—carrier pigeons accepted, but response time may vary.


Thank you for partnering with us through an amazing year. Let’s finish strong (and maybe slightly sun-kissed).
