Week 12

I apologize for my late appearance this week.  It has been a busy week with Halloween, a visit from the district and teacher observations - but no excuses, right?

In your child's homework folder you should've found our newest fundraiser packet.  We really want to encourage everyone to participate, not only for the awesome prizes your child can win, but for the much needed materials the funds will afford our school.  Being a new school, we are need of many supplies/materials and fundraising is the primary way we will be able to purchase these things.  Any level participation will help!

Also, early next week we will begin our reading assessment.  Each student will be assessed in their reading skills so we are able to find out their true "level" of reading.  This knowledge will allow us to group the students according to their levels so that each child is being appropriately challenged.  You will receive results from this assessment so that you are aware of what level books you should provide for your child at home as well.

Congratulations to Jamauri Davis, this week's Student of the Week.  He came to us a little later in the year so I am ashamed to say that I don't have his picture in my files - but I will make that up to him :)
