Today is Sunday, September 10, 2017
Good evening,
This week at a glance….9/11-9/15
I will be sending home more forms that will need signatures from parents/guardians & students. I will do my best to send these papers home on Mondays.
- An independent reading requirement letter will be sent home with the student’s reading log.
- BYOD (Bring Your Own Device), permission slip. At times, I will allow students to bring in their own devices as a reward. I send home this permission slip in advance, so when the time comes the students will be all set!
Coming up this week:
NWEA TESTING- Please make sure your child has a good night’s rest and a healthy breakfast!
Tuesday 9/12/17- Reading
Wednesday 9/13/17- Math
Thursday 9/14/17- Science
Tomorrow the students will create goals for NWEA, as we look at the RIT expectations for Fall 2017.
