On
Friday, May 15th, students at Rural Hall Elementary School had the
opportunity to get a taste of what awaits them when they move up to the next
grade for the 2015-16 school year.
Parents
were invited to attend "Moving Up" Day. While giving students a taste of what is to come, the event
was also designed to help parents find out more about academic requirements and expectations for the next
grade. Parents had the opportunity to ask questions and get grade-specific
answers.
Other schools participated in a number of ways. The Northwest Middle School band & orchestra visited fifth-graders in their music class. Students from Paisley IB Magnet School and Hanes Magnet School visited with fifth-graders via Skype to talk with students from Paisley.

Fifth-graders also had the chance to learn how to
work a lock for a locker.
Fourth-graders visited a fifth-grade class and had the chance to see what it was like to have their own laptop for school use. “They were happy!” said teacher Linda McDermon.
Third-graders
visited a fourth-grade classroom “Upstairs - as grown up as it gets!” Mc Dermon
said.
Other
grades also visited the classrooms they will be in next year.
It is always a fun experience for the students and teachers. We have a great staff. Thank you Linda for all the hard work and extra time you give to our school. You are the best!
