Weekly Wrap-Up
As the 2024–2025 school year comes to a close, emotions are certainly running high. While there's much excitement for summer and the adventures ahead, this time of year can also bring some tough goodbyes, especially in a community like ours, where many families transition to new assignments and locations.
We want to take a moment to thank each and every one of you for an incredible year!🎉 SHAPE Elementary is truly a special place, and that’s because of our students, staff, and families who make this such a strong and caring community.
This week, we also celebrated a very special milestone—Mr. Tjeltveit’s retirement after 35 years of dedicated service in education! We wish him all the best in this next exciting chapter. He will be deeply missed, and we are so grateful for the legacy he leaves behind.
We wrapped up the last day of school with bubbles and smiles as students and staff waved their final goodbyes—always a fun and bittersweet tradition to close out the year.
As we officially say goodbye to SY 2024–2025, we already look forward to what the next school year will bring. Until then, we hope you have a safe, restful, and joy-filled summer! 😎
