Welcome upstairs
A new world opens up for fifth grade
Each grade at Gordon contains its own rites of passage.
Today, fifth graders ascended the stairs in the library for the first time; tradition holds that the second floor of the library is just for Middle School.
Some of these students started at Gordon last week. Others have been waiting for this moment for eight years
Welcome upstairs, fifth grade.
A new world just opened up for you.
