Hello All,

We have another "normal" week ahead of us.  The kids will bring home a complete Homework Packet on Monday, and it's due on Friday.

Our trimester ends on Thursday, and report cards go home on the following Thursday, March 14th. Many students have still not met their AR goal, so remind your child to take tests on any books they have recently completed.  (It's best not to test on books from weeks and months in the past, as there are detailed and specific questions.) It's important to keep in mind the point of AR is to give kids practice in reading, with some accountability; it's not an end in itself. Students will get a new AR goal for the last trimester.

Our field trip to the SC MAH is scheduled for March 15th; thanks to all who have volunteered to drive.  We have a nice amount of space, with a little extra in case of sickness, etc.  There are a few kids who still need to return their permission slips and $2.00.  If it's sitting on your counter top, please send it in!

Take care, and have a good week,
Carroll Mayer
