Just a reminder that we will be doing our Interim SAGE Testing for Science this Thursday morning.  Please send your child to school well-rested and be sure they eat a good breakfast.

Hello!

A couple of our 6th grade boys asked permission to plan a talent show for our class.  It has kind of become a class tradition of ours.  With a busy school with lots of things happening, we were able to schedule the gym for this Wednesday morning at 9:00.  If your child is performing in the talent show, we would love to have you come and watch!  Please ask your child if they have signed up.  We will likely have another talent show in the Spring, with a little more planning time.

Thanks!

Hello,

Our Nutcracker field trip is next Monday!  I sent home permission slips this afternoon, so please make sure to sign those and send them back to school ASAP.

I am a little worried about our transportation.  At this point, I have 3 certified drivers:  Jeannie Smith, Monique Penman, and Sheralin Noble.  Will you please let me know if you will be able to drive and how many students you can bring?  If we have no other certified drivers by Monday, I will need some parents to coordinate to transport the other students to the theater.  Legally, I cannot arrange rides for the students with drivers who are not certified.   I have enough tickets for 5 parents to stay and watch the performance.

I have been telling the students since our Veteran’s Day reports were due that they would not be allowed to go on the field trip if they have not turned in their report.  I still have a few students who have not done this assignment.  Please speak with your students about this.  I don’t want to have to make anyone stay behind!

Thanks for all of your help and support to make this field trip possible!
