From Mr. David’s Desk

I can’t believe June is around the corner. May flies by, doesn’t it? As June approaches, I’m always reminded of my days paddling whitewater rivers down south and out west. I was a decent kayaker back in the day. The water would start off flat and calm, but the closer you got to the rapids, the louder and faster you’d go. Same with schools. As we approach the waterfall of moving up and the last day of school on Thursday, June 11, the water churns. Then we hit the calm pool of summer.

Next week, I’ll share some summer reading suggestions. Over the Memorial Day weekend, I finished Moby Dick, and I’m eager for some lighter, beachy fare.

Tuesday, June 2 is our final Parent Coffee of the year. Come thirsty and take home a Torit coffee mug as a gift!

Friday, June 5 at 1:45 PM is the Elementary Art Show. There will be Extended Day that afternoon for all students (we hope this is a positive change from the published version). Whether or not you have an elementary-age child, come see the beautiful work that our students have created.

The K Moving Up Ceremony (8:30 AM) will be held on Thursday, June 11, which is also the last day of school. The 2025-2026 school year officially ends that afternoon at 3:00. There is no Extended Day to allow faculty to begin preparing for summer.

Two new summer events: Torit will be sponsoring two Myrtle Street Playground performances: one on June 25 (Little Groove) and the other on July 23 (Animal Adventures). Spread the word, come enjoy!
