Parents, online book ordering information is below. It's also posted on Announcements on the Passport page and, more permanenently in the SWIFT links, for future reference. I apologize for the delay.

 Fundraiser envelopes were due today but can be turned in next Monday.

 I have decided not to send home Graded Paper Envelopes until after conferences, but I will be sending out progress reports early next week. The students will need to be selecting some "conference portfolio" pieces from their stash of papers and we'll need them all here. I mention this because I did state at Curriculum Night that they would be coming home every 3-4 weeks.

 Conference appointments will be sent home next Monday. I will do my best to meet your first or second choice of time.

  Mrs. Graham has asked me to remind students they have a “recital” in C104 next Wednesday.

Although I will be at school, it is a nonstudent day. I tell the kids that the only difference between their day and my day on nonstudent days is that their work is at home! I do give homework on Thursday for 3-day weekends of this nature, but, as always, if you have family time scheduled so that putting in time for homework on Friday (or weekend time) is difficult, send a note.

 Sincerely,

 Diane Moline
