January 5 Newsletter

Welcome back!
We had an awesome and productive 3 days back last week.  You may see graded papers coming home all week so that students can receive help at home if necessary to bring the grade up.  If your child has a grade lower than a 70 and you only see ONE grade, this means your child may return it corrected for partial credit.  Keep in mind the end of the 2nd nine weeks is approaching soon.  Please see important information below for upcoming dates.  PS: I have included the days we will have "Mastery Connect" assessments.  These are assessments mandated by the district.  It is important that your child is at school each day for these assessments so that we can minimize make-up times.  Some of these assessments may take all day and some may be half the day.  Please keep this in mind if you have appointments.
