■ IMPORTANT INFO CONCERNING ABSENCES FOR PROJECTS: Projects are due first thing in the morning on the due date. If your child is sick or absent for any other reason, please make arrangements to send their project before the due date. If the absence is unplanned, the project can be emailed to me before school on the due date to ensure your child still earns full credit for their work.
