Supply Check - this is a good time of year to check your child's school supplies for both quality and quantity. Some students still have supplies in their extras bags, but we have noted shortages in the following:
GLUE STICKS
PENCILS
SCISSORS
3-SUBJECT NOTEBOOKS (many are full)
End of the Quarter is this Friday, January 9.
Etiquette Training - We are so excited that our students will again be participating in etiquette training. Please ask them about what they are learning and encourage them to practice their good manners at home.

Reminder of Change in Testing this Year:
This year, students in grades 3-4
will participate in new state assessments to measure their language arts, math
and fourth grade social studies achievement. There area two types of
assessments that are required to be given: Performance Based Assessment (PBA)
which will be given at about the 75% completion mark of the school year and End
of Year (EOY) which will be given around the 90% mark.
We will schedule PBA assessments sometime during the testing window of March 2nd-20th and EOY assessments between April 13-May 15. All assessments will be taken online using a district-owned device. Once we have the exact dates for each grade, we will communicate that information. We hope this advance information is helpful as you plan and schedule appointments.
PRE-APPROVED REQUESTS FORMS WILL NOT BE HONORED DURING THE TESTING DATES. Also, we ask you to please try to avoid school-hour appointments during these dates as well. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
