Please be sure your child is prepared for the weather. Our playground can get really muddy so a change of shoes or boots is a good idea.
Lost and found - Students were instructed to remove all items that belong to them from the classroom and hallway. There were many instruments, boots, shoes, snow pants, etc. Any items left behind today will be placed in the lost and found. Please look there if your child is missing anything.
Field trip/ Lunch with a loved one - Our field trip to the UM Museum of Art happens to fall on the same day as Lunch with a Loved One. We will leave for our trip around 10:30 and return around 12:30. The students will be eating lunch in the classroom. They can bring a sack lunch or pick up hot lunch from the cafeteria and bring it back to the classroom. If you wanted to come and eat lunch with your child you can join us in the classroom on that day.
M-STEP Prep - We will be doing preparation for the M-STEP in class. There is also a link on this blog where your child can read practice questions at home to be prepared. If they have experience with this, the test may feel less daunting. In the student planner there are lists, such as the Bill of Rights, that students could look over to begin thinking about the social studies portion.
Scarlett Middle School - On Friday, March 24 a principal from Scarlett Middle School came to speak with the students. They should have papers in their backpacks explaining the IB program at Scarlett and why you might want to choose to send your child there. If you are interested, I can send home a form for you to fill out. I've already sent a few home. Scarlett is school of choice.
