Reminder that tomorrow is Election Day and there is NO school.  The PTA is doing a bake sale on Election day and starting a hat & glove drive.  Students had the chance to vote for president in class today, so we are encouraging all of our registered voters to come out and vote tomorrow!

All Weekly Reading Logs are due every Monday.  Students must read at least 100 minutes per week and fill in their current Lexile score on MyOn.  If a child does not bring their reading log to school on Monday, he/she will need to flip their card.  If a parent returns the log to the office by the end of the day, the student may change their card back to green.  It is one of our PBIS expectations to be responsible!

This Friday will be the Unit 3 Math Test.  A study guide is coming home today.  Please help your child complete the study guide and return it to school on Thursday for the class to check it together and go over any questions they still have about the test.  I encouraged students to take home their Math Notebook with all of our notes to help them study for the test.

Parent Teacher conferences begin this Thursday, and next Wednesday and Thursday.  Please arrive at your scheduled time.  If you are late, you will need to wait until I have an opening throughout the evening.  Students are encouraged to attend conferences, as we are working on starting student led conferences where your child will tell you about how they have been in school.  We will be sharing each child’s “My Learning Plan” where we have set goals and are tracking progress.

School districts in Wayne County have placed a proposal on the November 8^th ballot to provide added funding for our schools. It is the “Regional Enhancement Millage Proposal.”

If approved by the entire county, the 2 mil proposal will generate approximately $6.2 million from Dearborn but the District will receive $7.8 million in additional funding for our schools.  Money would go to local schools starting this year and the millage expires after six years.  Continue reading →

Congratulations to Saad for being the top reader on MyOn in 4th grade for the month of October!!!  Everyone should keep reading on MyOn at home to see if you will be the top reader for November.
