Happy Sunday, parents and guardians. Here is our weekly newsletter for the week beginning April 7th, 2025 (week 28 of instruction):
MSTEP Begins: Fifth-Grade will sit for the ELA MSTEP on Tuesday and math MSTEP on Thursday. That being said, it is VITAL that students get a good night's rest (please, no all-night gaming), eat a good breakfast in the morning, and are on-time this coming week. Testing begins first thing in the morning, so I want to be sure all students are present and ready to test. As a reminder, Laurus serves free breakfast to ALL students from 7:35-7:55 am.
Tutoring: This is the FINAL week of tutoring. Tutoring will be Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, from 3:30-4:30 pm. Pickup is at 4:30 pm sharp.
Curriculum: This week, the majority of our focus will be on MSTEP. We will continue reading From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler in ELA. For math, science, and social studies, we will be reviewing for the upcoming MSTEPs.
Uniforms: We are back to school uniforms this week, as there are no dress down days. Please remember, students are prohibited from wearing crocs. They need to be in closed-toe and closed-heel shoes. If your child is wearing crocs, they will be asked to call home for school appropriate shoes.
Homework: Due to MSTEP, there will be no homework or spelling lists this week.
Supplies: We are in need of the following classroom supplies. If you are able to send any of these items in, it would be greatly appreciated. The items we are in need of are:
-Facial Tissue
-#2 Pre-sharpened pencils
-Clorox wipes
-Lysol disinfecting spray
Thank you in advance for your help and support!
