March is reading month! Check out the calendar your child made and has in their folder to keep up with daily activities and spirit wear or the school calendar – March-is-Reading-Month-Calendar-2019 . Also, please encourage your child to read daily at home for at least 20 minutes. We will be holding a book reading contest this month. For every book or chapter completed, your child can fill out a book report form and submit it to be entered into a raffle for many great prizes including gift cards and a new bike. The more books completed, the more chances to win. Students will also have a chance to enter the raffle each time they complete an i-Ready lesson with a passing score.
We will be taking the writing WIDA test on Wednesday afternoon.
There is a PTA meeting Friday morning.
