Week 3 Newsletter

Week 3 was fun!

Students went to their first Band and Strings session to learn more about the program and their instruments. We also went to library for the very first time! And on Friday we had our very first Pay Day. It went really well, and the bankers got a little taste of what the year will look like for them.

Students should have brought home their first Friday Folder and Progress Report. Students are setting goals in the hopes of attaining them in a week's time. Please have a conversation with your student about their goals. Inside the Friday Folder was also the Outdoor Ed packet with all the permission slips. Please work on completing those forms. They are due in a few weeks. I know it is a lot of information, but it is a truly once in a lifetime experience for your 5th grader.


This upcoming week will be busy...


On Tuesday, September 4th we will have our first Auction. Students can sell or buy items during this time... the only requirement is that all items sold during the auction must be homemade. If a food item is brought in for sale, it needs to have an ingredient list with it for our students who need to avoid certain foods.

Also, the ice cream social is Tuesday evening starting at 6. If you're available and haven't already signed up to help, please do! The signup sheet is here... Ice Cream Social Signups I will be there, at the syrup station, so I hope you stop by!

Wednesday will be our first math test. The mid module 1 test covers the first 8 lessons of module 1, and the students received the study guide on Friday.

SPIRIT FRIDAYS
