Week of May 7th

6th grade will continue reading Stargirl.   7th grade will continue reading Chains.

We will prepare for EOG testing.

Progress Reports will come home on Wednesday.  Several students are missing grades.  It is the student's responsibility to make time for these tests/work.  They may stay 2:45-3:15 Tues, Wed, or Thursday.  They will need to let me know they are staying so I can prepare.

Unfortunately, some students are working below grade level and I am required to send retention letters home.   For several, this will be the 2nd letter sent home--the first one never made it's way back to me.  Please sign these letters and return to school the next day.
