The end of the first quarter is only a week away! Wow! Where did the time go? Since the quarter will wrap up soon, you can expect the report cards to come home on Wednesday, November 9. Also, watch your email for a link to sign up for conferences soon. Since I will be coaching basketball, my conference time slots will be slightly limited. Sign up early to get a preferred time slot.
If you are planning to order hot lunch for November, please turn your forms in by tomorrow, Friday. If you have not noted the new directions, please take a moment to read them over carefully.
Fifth graders will be participating in the Martin Luther College Forensics meet. Your student will be coming home with a sheet giving more details about this. Please return it as soon as possible, as we need to register students ahead of time.
Monday is the last day to take A.R. tests for the students’ October goals!
Next week we will be busy in the classroom. The fourth graders will have their next math test on Tuesday. The fifth graders will have an English test on Wednesday, and the usual spelling test will be on Friday. Also, please note that we will start reviewing for the next Science test that will happen early the following week.
