Homecoming Spirit Week, STEM Mania, 1st Math Test and More!

Happy Friday, Parents!

Homecoming week has ended, and the students had a blast dressing up for spirit week. Students also had many fun days implementing the four C’s (Collaboration, Communication, Creativity, and Critically Thinking) in our STEM Mania for science. Also, students took their first math test of the year. We do offer retakes for each math standard on the test. If students get a 70% or lower on the standard, students can decide to retake. If they do, they will receive reteaching and take that part of the test sometime after the reteaching.

Here is some information for next week:

No School on Monday, October 10th.

Math Test News: 

• If your student did not come to school on Thursday, October 6th, or Friday, October 7th, they will get the math Review on Tuesday, October 11th, and take the test on Wednesday, October 12th.
• If your student did not come to school on Friday, October 7th, then your student will take the math test on Tuesday, October 11th. 

**Students need headphones and computer mouses for class daily. Please send plug-in headphones and mouses (not Bluetooth), if possible, by Tuesday, October 11th**.

Fifth Grade camp is next Thursday and Friday! Please watch the weather so you can dress your student appropriately since we will be outside most of the day. Also, students are provided lunch and dinner on those days, so please just feed your child breakfast! We had a mini camp meeting with the students today and we will have one on Tuesday, October 11th.
