Our Holiday Teacher Luncheon is coming up shortly! We could use your support in covering their classes during the luncheon! Please see the Sign Up Genius below to support your child's or another classroom! This is one of our staff's favorite events sponsored by our awesome PTO, so we appreciate your support!
Good Afternoon!
I hope your Thanksgiving was full of Gratitude and ALL of your favorite foods! We are excited to welcome students back for 15 days before our Holiday Break! Below are a few things to keep in mind!
Our iReady Math Diagnostic window opens tomorrow, December 1st. This is the mid-year benchmark to show student growth from August until now. Please encourage your students to do their best!
The Penguin Patch Shop opens tomorrow and will run through Friday! I have previewed some of the gifts students can purchase and I know our students will choose some thoughtful items for family and friends. Please don't forget to send money in a marked envelope that was sent home and who students are to buy for.
December 4th our Kindergartners will head to a play and our First Graders will be decorating Gingerbread houses as they work on a literature unit based on different versions of The Gingerbread Man!
