Math Workbook Distribution

 by Mirvat Sabbagh

Hello Howard Families,

We will be distributing the Eureka math workbooks to our students, as we feel it will be very beneficial for them to continue the learning in the area of math. We will have a drive-up format in front of the school (N. York St.) for the distribution of the math workbooks. It will take place on Thursday, May 7th, from 11 am-1 pm for grades K-2 and from 1-3 pm for grades 3-5 (please select one of the time frames if you have children in both groups). We ask that you remain in your car during the distribution for your safety and the safety of others. In accordance with the governor’s orders, no students or parents are allowed in the school building. We appreciate your ongoing patience, flexibility, and support!

Take care and stay safe,

Mrs. Sabbagh
