Reminder that our field trip to Cranbrook is tomorrow.  Please remember to send your child with a lunch.  We also ask that your child wears Howe School wear.  If you do not have any, wear red please.  Thanks!

The 2nd graders will be having a math test on Friday, February 17.  I am sending home a practice test today.  Thanks.

New calendars are coming  home today.  I will accept January Book its the rest of the week.  Thanks

I am sending home a class list for your children to put names on Valentine cards for Valentine’s day.  Students will pass out cards on the 14th.  They can bring candy to pass too. Thanks

Field Trip notes will be coming home today.  Please fill out and return by this Thursday!  My class does not require all the parents to attend.  If your child was in Ms. Erin’s class or Ms. Schneider’s class last year, all parents were required to attend.  From second grade on, parents are not required.  If you’d like to chaperone, please send in $10 and be sure that your information is current in the office.  The school district checks backgrounds of all parents who will be chaperoning a trip for the safety of all children.  Your information is valid for 3 years so if you have this information in the office from last year than it is still current.  Thanks

As a school, the teachers have decided to stamp a student’s work that needs to be finished at home with a homework stamp.  The work not done in class could be due to an absence or the student didn’t finish in time, etc.  We will also provide a line for you, the parent, to sign the paper before it is returned.  Thanks.

Due to the half day on Friday, January 27, we will have the math test on Thursday, January 26.

Every Tuesday until the end of the year, we will have library check-out.  Most students keep their books in class but if your child brings them home, be sure to send them back Tuesday mornings.  Thanks!

Grades 2-5 will be attending a field trip to Cranbrook on Wednesday, February 8.  This will be an all day trip.  More information will come soon.
