Week of May 11th
The children are going to be taking the district English Language Arts and the Iowa Common Core math assessment this week. Due to the intensity of the testing schedule I have told the class that there will NOT be ANY homework this week.
Their "homework" is to get plenty of rest and fresh air. It is really important for them to have breakfast and be at school on time as well.
Please remember that book orders are due on Thursday, May 14th.
