BAIP

BAIP is a site that the students can visit for extra practice and review. Your child has his or her username and password for BAIP in their agenda. Please allow your child to practice their skills on BAIP at home if possible!

Halloween

Please join us for our Halloween Party at 1:30pm on Friday October 30th. The school wide parade will follow at 2pm. Please come help us celebrate!

Parent Teacher conferences

I have enjoyed meeting with parents to discuss their student's progress. I am so happy to have the opportunity to talk with you and share a bit of our classroom with you in that way. Thanks for attending your conference and for supporting your child in that way.

The kids have elected Bailey Lewis as our classroom ambassador. Bailey will be working with ambassadors from other classrooms to help our students with problems, help address classroom issues, and to do important and special jobs around the school. We look forward to having a new ambassador each nine weeks! Congrats to Bailey!

Ask your child about their Glogster account and the virtual stores the students have created! They had a lot of fun doing it in math class to practice calculating totals using decimals and making/counting back change.
