Welcome back!

Hope you had a great fall break! Today marks the beginning of the 2nd nine weeks and a fresh start for each student. Everyone is back to a 100 in conduct. AR & AM goals also start over, though some may be "tweaked" a bit as needed.

Tonight's homework is to write spelling words in ABC order in the agenda. Also, a few students needed to finish the language arts unit 1 review. Their mystery genre (project coming soon) is due by the 31st. Please check your child's agenda for any other assignments.

This Thursday is Papa's Pizza "Dough Raiser" night. Present your "ticket" when you order, and 10% of the proceeds come back to our school! Also, the class with the most participants will get a pizza party. Mrs. Lewis & Ms. Holt's class enjoyed theirs today, so we're hoping we're next! Help us out if you can! Thanks in advance.

Friday is our Book Character Dress Up Day. Students may come in costume as long as they also have the book their character is from. They will give a brief talk about their book and their character to earn extra credit in reading.

Finally, Friday is a half day for parent/teacher conferences (students dimiss about 11:30; lunch will be served at school). If you did not receive a conference request notice and would like one, please let us know and we can schedule one. Report cards will go home Friday to be signed & returned ASAP.
