Many thanks to Anh Hopper, Catalina Pastore, the Roberts administration team, and all the parent volunteers who made the 5th grade dance an out-of-this-world memorable experience.

IN THIS ISSUE
FROM THE PTO PRESIDENT: MILESTONES

Our family reached a big milestone this week as our oldest graduated from 5th grade after six wonderful years at Roberts—though with three more little ones still in or heading to Roberts, we’re far from done.

As PTO President, I’ve had the joy of witnessing the heart and hustle that goes into making our school such a special place. From our incredible committee leads to the everyday volunteers, our rockstar administration, and the truly amazing teachers and staff, it takes everyone working together to keep things running smoothly, and I’m endlessly grateful for each and every one of you. (Thank you particularly to Roberts parents Thuy Trinh Wong, Clayton Forswall, and Shirin Hakimzadeh for agreeing to serve on this year’s audit committee.)

We’re not slowing down. This summer, we’ve got several exciting projects on the horizon, including a brand-new PTO shed, an outdoor refresh, updates to the computer lab, and a teachers' lounge makeover. We’ll be working throughout the summer to ensure our school is refreshed and ready to welcome students back in August.

Thank you all for showing up, giving so generously, and pouring so much love into Roberts. It’s an honor to be part of this incredible village.

—Wafa Taiym, 2024–2025 PTO President

FIFTH GRADE MOVING ON UP

Congrats to our 5th graders, whose closing days as Roberts students have included presenting projects full of impressive interaction and detail at the IB Exhibition, enjoying a celebratory dance party, and attending a commencement to recognize their achievements. We can't wait to see what you'll do next!

 

A huge thank you to Chick-fil-A on Holcombe for generously donating 90 sandwiches, treat cards, and mac and cheese to our 5th grade dance!

Your support helped make the event extra special for our students—we truly appreciate your kindness and community spirit!

Thank you for a fantastic year of dancing and for your amazing support of the Roberts dance program! <3 Mrs. Winard
