Teacher Tidbits:
I hope you all enjoy the pictures taken last week of the students working hard on their chromebooks. I was so proud of the hard work they were doing I couldn’t wait to share it with you.
 
Communication folders came home Thursday. There should have been two graded assignments inside. If your child only brought home one, or none, this means they have not yet completed the assignment. We discussed taking responsibility for our work and turning things in in a timely manner. I am missing several assignments from several students, and the end of the nine weeks is quickly approaching. Please review your child's grades and progress on Powerschool. If you have any questions or concerns about grades, please feel free to contact me!
