I hope everyone had a safe and relaxing weekend!
We are half way through the first 9 weeks and progress reports will be sent home on Thursday. Please note that grades on the progress report are not final, but show how your child is doing so far. If there are missing grades, he/she can still turn in the assignment for a grade. Any graded work below a 70 can be redone and turned back in for a grade up to 70.

Wednesday: "Parents and their Work Day"- Students interview their parents. Students are encouraged to draw or write about their parents' skills or what their parents do for a living. Photos and props may be included. The students can share their interviews with their classmates.
** Volunteer Opportunity***I think it would be really exciting if we could get some parent volunteers to come into the classroom to share where they went to college, and what they are doing now. I am looking for parents who would like to come talk to us about college. Please email or call me if you are interested. This will be on Wednesday at 12:45. I will send more details once I know how many parents would like to volunteer!
Thursday: Design College Bound Pennants of the year your class will graduate a 4-year college. This will be done in class.
Friday: "I Want to be…." Each class stops by the graffiti wall to express their career ambitions.
