Happy Sunday, parents and guardians! Here is our weekly newsletter for the week beginning March 17th, 2025 (week 26 of instruction):
Interims/MSTEP: With the completion of Interim 3 past this week, we now move our focus to MSTEP. This testing begins the week of April 7th, so we have VERY little time remaining to prepare. As such, it is VERY important that students are in attendance EVERY day and ALL day, when possible. We have a lot of material we need to cover, and missing any material can be very detrimental to a student's performance on these tests. Please only utilize absences and early dismissals when ABSOLUTELY necessary. Thank you!
Tutoring: Tutoring resumes this week on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 3:30-4:30 pm. Dismissal is at 4:30 pm sharp.
Spring Break: This is our LAST week before spring break. There will be no school the week of March 24-28th. School resumes March 31st.
$2 Dress Down on Friday- March 21st is a $2. If your student would like to dress down (wearing pj's is free of charge for Reading Month Event), please send them in with $2.
Reading Month Events: The daily reading month events are as follows. Participation in events is free.
Monday- College Shirt Day (Wear your favorite college shirt to school)
Tuesday- Get on "Board" with Reading (Board Game Day)
Wednesday- Family Reading Night 4:30-5:30
Thursday- Dress Up as Your Favorite Book Character Day
Friday- Snuggle up with a Good Book (PJ Day *School Appropriate*)
Book Fair: The Scholastic Book Fair will be this week (Monday the 17th- Friday the 21st). If you would like your child to purchase any books/posters/pens/etc., please send them in with money or you can put money on an electronic card through the book fair. I will send students who will be making a purchase down to the book fair.
