Week of 11/16-11/20

Good afternoon parents and guardians,

We are getting closer to the end of the first trimesters. Before going on Winter break, teaching will be holding parent conferences all week long after school and all day December 18. Please use the link below to sign up for a time and date.

You will need to log in using an email address. 

Scholastic book orders can always be placed online using the link to the right of the page and they will arrive quicker. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to email me or stop by the classroom.

Parents have been asking about volunteering in the classroom. REACH allows parents to work with students for 3 days, after this they need to be finger printed. More information can be found in the office. The following would be the best times for parents to come in and help (working with students in small groups).
