State Testing

State Testing begins this week. We will start testing Science: Thursday, May 3rd and Friday, May 4th of this week. Next week, we will test Monday through Thursday ( 2 days of ELA and 2 days of Math consecutively)

We will be testing every morning as soon as school starts. Please make sure your child is on time everyday of testing. Also, please make sure they are present at school as not to have to take multiple parts of the test on the same day. 

Remind them to go to bed a reasonable time and to eat a healthy breakfast.

Progress Reports

Hello Parents!! Today was Progress Report Friday. Please look over their progress reports, sign, and return to me Monday. Enjoy your weekend.

Cancelled

Sorry, for the inconvenience but the Changing Bodies Video has been cancelled for this evening. I will inform you all of the new preview date for the video.

Our Changing Bodies Video

Good Morning Parents,

 

 It is that time of year. The time to show the students the video on puberty. But before we show the video to the students we offer the parents an opportunity to check out the video. We will be showing the video in Room 501 at 5pm ( one hour before the Walk-A-Thon) on Thursday, April 26th. This is a parents only event. The students will have an opportunity to watch the video later. Feel free to attend and we will answer any questions you might have about the video. Thanks.
