  • Monday is the last day to sign up for Parent/Teacher Conferences.
  • Conferences start this week: Wednesday the 8th from 6 to 8 and Friday 1:30-3:15  I look forward to meeting with all of you.
  • Friday is half day because of Parent/Teacher Conferences.
  • Students have been wearing necklaces and bracelets that have broken in class, or elsewhere.  We will always look for them, but we are in many places during the day.  If your child is wearing something special I would recommend that they don't wear it to school. We continually have the discussion that if something is special then school is not a place to bring it.  
  •  Check out our class blog. The students are so excited about this. Class Blog
