with your children and discuss how we can maintain or improve certain areas.
Remember this week and next week IOWA Basic Testing is
going on in grades 3, 5, & 7. Continue
to see that the students are well rested and have a good breakfast.
It might help for you to reinforce to your children the idea of
checking over their work before closing their test booklet.

Dear Parents,
The weather seems almost spring like after last week.
It is good to be back and into finishing up 2nd quarter.
The question on many people’s minds now is when are we making up our
snow day. We need to make up one
day. February 6th was
scheduled as an off day because of conferences on Tuesday night.
We plan to have school on Friday, Feb. 6th until 1:10 PM.

Dear Parents,
Brrrrrrrr!!!!
We are in the midst of the coldest week of the year according to the
weatherman. Please listen to the
radio or go on line to see about delays and/or cancellations.
We have one more cancelled day that would not need to be made up.
After that we make up any cancelled days.
So watch what we pray for.

Dear Parents,
As we turn the calendar to a brand new year, it is a
good time to take stock of your child’s progress so far this school year.
By now your child is settled into the year and you can, with your
child, set goals for the remainder of this school year.
Make your child’s learning goals part of a regular conversation.
