Happy December!

On Friday we will have a spelling test.  This is the only test this week.

After School Enrichment: Throughout the year, the PTA coordinates after school enrichment (ASE) programs for the students to enjoy.  These are selected to enrich the school curriculum.  These offerings usually include reading, math, science, sports, games, art, music, and foreign language.  Classes typically cost $30 for a six-week class, enough to pay the instructors and cover the cost of supplies.  These classes are designed to be less structured than the traditional classroom setting.  All ASE programs are held at school.  Your child will be reminded to go to the appropriate part of the school )gym, LMC, etc) and you should pick him/her up in front of the school at the end of class.  Classes fill up quickly, so sign up now!  The deadline is Thursday, December 13th.  Classes include: Strike It )paddles, rackets, and bats), hockey, Legos, and Lego robotics.

The third grade team is looking for DVD copies of Jumanji and Zathura.  If you have a copy and wouldn't mind us using it, could you send it in next Monday.

Also remember to have your student log in his/her minutes for reading.  They need to go to Reading Stars on the May Watts website.  The students get different awards for reading the amount of minutes they are suppose to read.

Have a great week!
