Hello Parents –
We are doing a 1,000 th day celebration, along with Valentine’s day on Friday, February 12. The permission slip below is for the food, passing out, recieving, and all the information for the party.
I am also asking for donations. I do have candy hearts that were previously donated. But if you are willing to donate the marshmallows or toothpicks I would be GREATLY appreciative. I have enjoyed meeting with parents this week and loved bragging about their accomplishments, then making goals for success in the future. I truly love our class’s dynamics and hope it continues through the rest of the year.
Important dates that will be coming up:
- Friday, February 5 – No School – Teacher Work Day

- Friday, March 19 – End of 3rd Quarter – (Grades are on a new grade book this year. At this time there is NOT a tracker available, but I do send out an email every time I update grades.) Remember – we are a mastery school, the grades are based on their individual (tests) NOT the practice work they do before. If they do not master a concept at first, they have multiple tries to master the standard to a 3 or 4. It doesn’t matter what quarter they took the test or the standard, Final grades are Mainly what we look at for mastery. If you have any questions about your child’s grades, please email me. In our CLASS ,the students do keep track of their own grades on their data sheets, too! (Also – check out my policy page to see scoring percentages for deeper explanation.)
