Announcements:
If the real feel temperature is below 60 degrees students must wear a coat or jacket outdoors.
We have library on Monday! Students are only able to check out a new book if they returned their other one. Books should be returned by Friday so they can be checked back in
Students should be bringing their BINDER home every day. In that binder is their student planner/book club reading notebook, PBL notebook, and their science vocabulary book. It needs to also be brought back to school each day.
A good habit is to have that binder in their backpack when they're not using it. When they are done with their home learning, it should go right back into their backpack.
