Progress Reports

Progress Reports were sent home today.

9 weeks folders were also sent home today. This is the work from the last nine weeks, please keep the work at home, sign the envelope, and return tomorrow.

Bathroom Note

There is a note that is going home in your folder today about bathroom behavior, there have been several instances of people writing vulgar language in the boy's and girl's bathrooms. The 4th, 5th, and 6th grade are the only grades to use our bathrooms, so it has to be someone in one of those grades. Also, we have had several instances of bad language being used at the lunchroom table. It is a privilege to be able to sit with friends at break and lunch, and to be able to use the restroom throughout the day individually instead of always going with the whole class. Please have a discussion about this with your child, this behavior will not be tolerated anymore. Thank you.

Also, on a happier note... If any parent or grandparent would like to come and eat lunch with us any day, you are more than welcome to! And the SGA is still having its Can-A-Thon, please send canned goods.

Basketball Camp

This is a condensed version of letter sent home from Mark Knotts:

Starting this Sunday at 2:30 - 4:00 we will have a "basketball camp" for 3rd and 4th graders. We will work on fundamentals of basketball. If your child plays "Upward" basketball, please have them wear their reversible jersey. If your child does not play upward, please have them wear either a mostly white or mostly green t-shirt (green preferred). Please send a note to your homeroom teacher by Friday.

3rd Nine Weeks!

I hope everyone had a WONDERFUL Christmas Break... I can't believe it is already over, and we are on our 3rd Nine Weeks!

Tuesday morning we are going to get started by re-organizing our cubbies, desks, binders, folders, busy boxes and such.

• Please send any new supplies your child might need: new crayons, markers, color pencils, regular pencils, paper, graph paper, binders, folders... We want to start 2009 off on the right foot, and organization is so important!!!

Also, we are starting out with new AR Goals and let's try very hard to make sure we have an AR book (IN YOUR ZPD) with you at school and at home every day. We have at least 20 min. of AR reading time each day, and you should be doing that at home as well. AR books should DEFINITELY come to school on Wednesday because that is our Library Day!!!
