Week 8 9/26 - 10/2

 

Hello Parents! This is week 8 and we are wrapping up 1st quarter. If there has been an academic or behavioral concern, I have already reached out to you and there is an open stream of communication. If not, then your child is doing just what they need to be doing. If there is anyone interested in a parent/teacher conference on October 10, please visit the link. Remember, you can always request a meeting with me anytime, before or after school.
