Weekly Notices for May 15 to 19

 Dear Parents,

       Please remember to have your child wear gym clothes on MONDAY.  Also please remember to send in your child's test folder with all test signed.  The MAP test for Math is scheduled for this Tuesday and MAP test for Reading for this Wednesday.  Each test will begin promptly at 8:30 so it is very important that students arrive ON TIME!  Please have your children bring their own headphone if you like so that they feel more comfortable.  No homework will be assigned this week until MAP testing is over so students have every opportunity to practice Edgenuity.

      There will be a Reading Test on Thurs. on One Classroom, Many Cultures. We will have Mass at 10:00 for Ascension Thursday followed by the May crowning of our Blessed Mother.  There is NO SCHOOL on Friday.  On Thursday I will only be posting study guides for the following week's tests.

      In Science and Social Studies students  continue to practice reading  comprehension by responding to questions based on passages on topics we are covering in those subjects. Please check your child's folder for corrected work done on looseleaf.

                                                                                                                                       Ms. Saville
