Feb. 18 is a HALF DAY for parent/teacher conferences. You have been contacted if I'm requesting a conference. Please sign up for a slot!
March 4 is our Literature Day Parade! Please see the flyer that went home for information, but make sure your child is wearing a costume that:
can easily be worn to do all school activities (sitting down in a desk, PE, play at recess, etc.)
is modest and tasteful (not scary, bloody, etc.)
no weapons or weapon-like props
no face paint/excessive makeup (freckles or Harry Potter scar is allowed)
As weather starts to warm up this spring, please take a minute to check your child's short/dress length. Remember, all bottoms should be no shorter than 2 inches above the knee. Please also check that your child is bringing a water bottle to school to help with keeping them in the classroom as much as possible :)

What is AASA?
The Arizona Academic Standards Assessment is the standardized test each student in the state is required to take in the spring. This test starts in the 3rd grade, which means your child will be taking it for the first time this year! This is a BIG test and very important, especially this year for the ELA portion of the test. While we don't want to stress the students out, it's important to emphasize how important this test is. We've been talking about it in class and will be doing prep, but support at home in reminding your child to do their best to prepare is also beneficial!
Virtue Focus: Love of Country
This week we'll be discussing various jobs of government officials and how we can support those who serve our nation through government work, being first responders, or the military!
