  Hi families!  The 4th grade music performance will be on Wednesday at 6:30 pm at the high school. You may arrive around 6:15. There will be another performance finishing up, so please do not enter the auditorium until that performance is done. Also, please have your student wear red, white, and blue on the day of the performance because the theme is America. Many kids have speaking parts, so please review the lines with your child at home. If you need an extra copy sent home, please let me know. I hope to see you there!  Our Kindness party will be on February 14th at 2:00. Here is a link for the sign up if you would like to volunteer.  Students are allowed (but not required) to bring valentines, but they must bring enough for all 27 kids. Here is a list of class names.

  Hi families! The NWEA testing for math will begin on Tuesday, January 24th. Testing will be in the mornings, so please try and schedule appointments in the afternoon if possible. Keep in mind, testing may take 2-3 days. It varies for each student. Students can still bring in gum or mints to wake up their brain.  From Ms. Mileham, the music teacher: The 4th-grade performance will be on February 1st in the evening.

Winter conferences are on an as-needed basis. I will email all parents, notifying them either way! My conference schedule doesn’t begin until the week of February 20th. Currently, all students are working on their student-led conference slides and goals and will present them at home if they don’t have a conference.  Here is a link to volunteer for the Kindness Part...
