Testing- finishing up this week! (Tuesday-Thursday)

Please be sure your child’s computer is fully charged the night before.  In addition, please ensure they get plenty of rest and a good breakfast the morning of the test.  Students have as much time as they need to take this test. Headphones will also be required for some tests.


Remember to charge those devices each night!

 

Positivity Project Character Strength:   This week’s character strength is Other People Mindset:  Knowing my words and actions affect others.  Everything you do can affect others in a positive way.

Spring Weather

As temperatures begin to warm up, please remind your child that they will need a coat for recess if the temperature has not reached 60 degrees.  If they are playing and get warm, they are asked to tie their coat around their waist. As the weather starts to warm up, please be sure students are dressed appropriately. Clothing that exposes underwear or too much skin is prohibited. This includes midriff tops.


Springtime Activities:  The days are getting longer and busier as spring activities are getting underway.  Please help your child perform well by getting enough sleep and continuing 30 minutes of reading nightly.  We appreciate the encouragement and support you give your child to do his/her best at school each day.  Thank you!


Library Books:  Please help your child remember to return or renew his/her library books every Friday.  The media center is asking students to return late books and monitor how many books they have checked out to ensure all books are returned by the end of the year. Our classroom library is also missing many books! Please keep an eye out for them over the next few weeks to ensure they get returned for next year's students.
