Good afternoon,

I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend and had fun on the field trip Friday! This week:

  • Tomorrow is an early release, dismissal is at 1:50.
  • I will be out on Friday this week. Friday is also Bake Sale day after school.
  • This week in math we will be completing module 5 lessons 19-23.
  • Report cards are going home today. Please take out your child’s report card and return the envelope tomorrow.  (Just an added note about report cards- the standards I grade each marking period can be different so it is possible to go up or down grade wise in an area based on what I assessed. Your child could have earned a 2 in marking period 1 but dropped to a 3 in marking period 2 because different standards were assessed. This goes for both ELA and Math standards.)
  • Remember, book bags go home every Monday with new books. Books are to be read each day at home. Book bags are due back every Friday.
  • Please remember to check the weather each morning. Dress your child appropriately for the weather. There were students without coats today. If they aren’t dressed appropriately, they will sit in the office during outside recess.
  • There is no school for students next Friday the 18th.

Enjoy your week!!

Field Trip!! Please read!!

Hello Families!

We are so excited about Fridays all school field trip! We wanted to update you on the final plan so we all know what to do….

*If possible please wear a Howe school shirt OR red shirt so we can easily find each other throughout the day.  

*Please drop your child off at Howe at the normal time (8:20 am). We will be taking our spelling test first thing before we leave.

*Students will board the buses and leave around 9:15 am. 

*All chaperones will be meeting us at the clocktower entrance benches at 9:30 am. Your child will have the tickets for you both. 

*Teachers will hand off the students to chaperones and then people may begin entering the museum. 

*Once inside make sure you are walking around and finding other Howe friends. Work on completing the scavenger hunt!

*At 12:30 pm please meet in Lunchroom A. (This is in the hallway by Michigan Cafe).

*The only place to purchase food is Plum Market. This is on the other side of the museum so you will have to carry the food over to the lunchroom if that is what you choose. 

*At 1:30 pm please meet back at the clocktower entrance READY TO LEAVE. (*If you want to sign out your child and not have them come back to Howe please come around 1:20 so we can sign you out before we load buses.)

*All students not signed out by a parent will be taken back to Howe and dismissed like normal at 3:20 pm. 

Please let your teacher know if you have any questions! We look forward to this experience with all of our Howe students.
