We are two days into the new school year, and I bet the kids are already a little sluggish at night. Today looks to be a warm, humid one, so please consider that when sending your child out the door in the morning. Our classrooms are getting toasty!
This next week we will continue to work our way into a regular week’s schedule. We will be starting Jr. Choir, music, and Physical Education. Please make sure your child has a clean pair of gym shoes to keep in their locker for the year. Also, please make sure they have suitable footwear on Wednesdays and Fridays for when they are outside for gym class.
Next week, the students will have their first spelling test on Monday. The fifth-graders will have a math test on Thursday, all of the students will have an English test on Thursday, and the Unit 2 spelling test will be in its usual Friday spot.
Don’t forget to keep an eye on your hot lunch schedule to see what days your child is eating the school-prepared lunch.
