Welcome Back!
As we start a new year, a new 9 weeks, and a new semester, I just wanted to say Welcome Back! It has been so nice being back this week.
We are half way through the school year, and the end is in sight. However, I want to remind everyone that we still have a lot of work in front of us. Remember to get those vocabulary notebooks done and turned in on time. And parents be on the look out for the new "Week in Review" documents that your student will be bring home. It will be a form filled out by them, highlighting what they have done during the week. It will also give you more information on missing assignments and behavior for the week.
As always, thank you so much for the support, and students thank you for dedication to learning :)
