Hello students and parents!

We are beginning our new selection, "Volcanoes", in Language Arts. The spelling and vocabulary words can be found on the left side of the site.

Students will have a Reading Comprehension Test for "Eye of the Storm" on Tuesday in addition to a mini-quiz in math on rounding.

Wednesday is mass with the 1st grade so please be on time!
The Sponsor luncheon is on Friday from 11:30a-1p.

Remember that Reading Logs are due EVERY MONDAY and checked for completion every morning.

Grades are finalized in less than two weeks! It is the last opportunity to raise your grades, so every assignment counts!
