Hello,

This week is an exciting week for all of us being our Valentine’s Day celebration on Friday!  If you are sending in Valentine cards on Friday, please make sure you send one for each student in our class (26 students).  A class list was sent on Friday.  CLICK HERE FOR CLASS LIST

We are beginning to receive our flat students. I will be sending the requirements for our School Fair assignment next Monday.  Your child will go home with the directions and their envelope with all the things collected throughout the year from their flat host.  If you have ANY questions regarding the project please do not hesitate to stop by after school to look at a sample or clarify any questions you may have for this project.  I look forward to this project every year.

Progress Reports will be going home tomorrow.  If you would like to request a conference, please send me an email.
