We have set the 3rd Quarter behavior goal. For the 3rd Quarter, students may not miss more that 2 Freaky Fridays -- that means they can have no more than 2 missing or late assignments. We have noticed several students had difficulty getting back in the habit of homework after winter break. We ask that you please work with your child to assist him/her in organizing and scheduling homework time.
TESTING UPDATE
Dates have been set for the 4th grade PARCC Performance Based Assessments (PBA). 4th graders will be tested the following dates:
Tuesday, March 3 - Language Arts Part 1
Thursday, March 5 - Language Arts Part 2
Monday, March 9 - Social Studies
Wednesday, March 11 - Language Arts Part 3

Each test will begin first thing in the morning and will last 60-90 minutes (time varies by the test). It is very important that students arrive at school on time.
Reminder: No pre-approved absence forms will be accepted during this time.
There will be another round of testing, End of Year (EYO) Assessments will be given April 13 - May 15. When specific dates are set, we will communicate those to you.

Hey parents! In art class, our students are busy creating beautiful artworks. These artworks are going to be used for the fundraiser program Art to Remember. Student artworks can be printed on bags, coffee mugs, book marks etc. All items purchased by students will help our school and art program raise money to buy art supplies. Order forms will be passed out in art class in early March. Thanks for your support.
