Greetings!  

A Special Thanks  to those Parents and Grand Parents who were able to come out to the  Open House  and  First Friday Breakfast.   It was great seeing all of you!   

Listed below are the field study dates and costs for the 2018-19 school year. The permission slip will cover all field studies for the year.   I encourage you to complete and send in the bottom portion of the slip and the $28 by September 17​th​.​ Payments may be made online through Parent Portal, under the “Student Fees” section.

Assessments  for reading comprehension and vocabulary will be given on Thursdays.  Students are required to read each  test question independently (unless they have an IEP).  Therefore, I encourage you to  speak to your child  about taking their time and reading each question carefully.   They are allowed to use their book when answering their reading comprehension questions.   Math assessment will be given  at the end of each unit.
