Today, students are bringing home a graded reading passage that needs signed/initialed and returned to me no later than Wednesday.

PLEASE make sure your child is reading every night and working on Book Adventure and/or completing their projects.  I have students handing in projects that are not on the list ( a bit confusing).  The list should be the first page in their 3 ring binder.

Deadline for all projects/quizzes for first quarter is mid-October.
