Service Projects:
All third grade service projects will be due on Monday, May 1st. On Friday, I sent out the requirements for the service project to be presented starting on May 1st. UPDATE: information about service projects is to the right under community service projects and in student Google classroom accounts.

SBACC:
SBACC (state testing) will begin the week of May 8th and continue through May 19th. Please plan all doctor and/or dentist appointments for after the school day and please be on time for school.  

Starting the week of April 17th, I will be holding after school test prep every Monday and Friday from 1:15pm - 2:00pm. For those of you who want your kiddos to practice, but cannot get them to the test prep sessions, I have the SBACC practice assessment link to the right.------------------>

During our testing weeks please send your child with extra snacks. Research shows that students who are chewing do better on assessments. Also, be sure your child gets plenty of sleep and a good breakfast. Thank you in advance for your continued support.
