Happy February!!!

Happy February all!!!! Our year continues to move along rapidly!!! Here are a few updates on what's coming up for this month.

The Little White House Trip

We will take our trip to The Little White House on the February 26, 2015.  This is one of my favorite field trips. Students get to see exhibits and tour the Georgia home of Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt. It promises to be lots of fun.  Permission slips went home for this trip on Friday, January 29, 2015. Please make sure that the permission slips are sent back as soon as possible. Also, please make sure that $30 has been paid as well.

Win a trip to Six Flags

Students can win a free ticket to Six Flags by completing 360 minutes or 6 hours of reading. Reading forms were also sent home on Friday. Please encourage your child to read and earn this ticket.

Is your child at 40% of their AR goal?

As  we move along in the nine weeks, we are continuing to work toward achieving our AR goals. At this point, all students should be
at least at 40% of their goals. Check         
                                                                                   reading logs each Friday to see that week's
                                                                                   progress.
