Coming Up:
*As soon as our beginning of year testing is over, I will be sending home books with your child to read.
*We will be going to the library every week from now on so please make sure your child returns their book to their backpack after reading it with you so they have it here when we go to get new books.
*Progress reports will be coming home Thursday. Please sign and return them. I will send it back to you once I see that you signed it.
