Classroom News

The new Spanish teacher, Senora Nixon has been a great addition to the upper grade curriculum.  Already, the fifth graders are using what she taught the class to converse with each other in Spanish!  Please help support the program and your son or daughter's success by purchasing a one subject notebook that can be used in this class.

The fifth grade will begin reading the novel Caddie Woodlawn next week.  All students are to have the book in class Tuesday, January 18.  Books may be checked out of the public library or purchased.

Progress Reports will be sent home in the Tuesday Envelope, per subject for any areas where a student may struggle.
