Happy Halloween Everyone

I hope that you are all having a safe, fun evening. It was a great day and the students looked amazing. A couple of notes about this week:
1. Thursday is an early dismissal day and there is no school on Friday.
2. Parent conference schedule notes went home today. We will be doing conferences on Wednesday and Thursday.
3. Report cards will go home on Wednesday. We did not give a formal grade for science this past semester as we spent most of our elective time on BizTown.  Students received full credit in social studies if they completed all of the projects. We will work together on the Goal section of the SEP when we meet.
4. I have some recent test data to share with you at conferences. This will give you an idea of where your student started the year.

Many thanks to everyone who helped with the carnival. The kids had a great time.  **** A local dentist is collecting leftover candy. Each class will have an opportunity to earn a pizza party and $100 for supplies by collecting the most leftovers.  The candy will go to a program that sends it to our soldiers serving in Afghanistan.

Big Picture Items for Semester 2
1. Science Fair
2. Persuasive Writing Test
3. Presidents Wax Museum

Math Facts
Please keep working on these and getting them passed off. Fluency is so important to mathematical success.

I look forward to meeting with all of you this week.
