Welcome to 5th grade at Woodridge Elementary! This year promises to be packed with fun, learning, and unforgettable experiences. There will be a lot of exciting events and activities awaiting our 5th graders.
5th Grade Fee
To cover the costs associated with these fun events, there will be a 5th grade fee of $125 for all students. This one-time fee can be paid through Mule Market starting August 1st, and will include the 5th grade t-shirt and will provide access to all events. There will be no other fundraising related to these activities this year. For any questions or to pay by cash/check please contact Evonne Kroll, Scotty Macdaniel
5th Grade Shirt
Each student will receive a 5th grade t-shirt, included with the fee. These shirts are to be worn proudly at all 5th grade events, starting with the Howdy Parade!
