Here's to New Beginnings

Comes January, cold and gray

The new year's just beginning

And February, short and bright

With Valentine hearts winning

The 7th Grade Trip
     All 7th grade students were given handouts this week regarding our February trip to Rock Eagle. Please make sure all permission slips and money is turned in by February 10. If you didn't see the handout, please ask your child about it and make sure it isn't hiding in his/her bookbag, Chromebook case, binder, etc. We appreciate your prompt attention to this matter.

The Spring semester of DEEP is well on its way. Three students from the Fall semester were chosen to read their work at Yamacraw Center of Performing Arts on Sunday, 2/16 at 5 pm. 

GMAS tutorial has started for 8th grade students in reading and math. The reading tutorial takes place on Thursdays from 3:15 - 4:15. The math tutorial letters were sent home with a calendar showing dates that tutorial will be held. 

Conferences
     We are approaching our last week of conferences. If you have not already scheduled one with your child's homeroom teacher, please do so at your earliest convenience.

Progress Reports
     Progress Reports for the 3rd nine weeks will be sent home next Friday, 2/7.

Students are completing assessments this week as we end Cycle 3 and move into Cycle 4. Students will be given time to make corrections on their Math and Natural World tests tomorrow and next week. The final assessment for Language is the Poetry Anthology and is due tomorrow, 1/31.

Enjoy our wacky weather and get in touch if you have any questions or concerns.
