Week 11 Oct. 22-26

Team Urban,

With the end of the 1st trimester approaching, conference email signups will go out at 3:00 pm on Friday the 19th. Please remember each conference time is scheduled for 20 min.  I know this time is short, however, make sure you are on time so other sibling conferences are not impacted. If you are late, please email me to reschedule for another time slot.  

Students have until Nov. 2nd to make their AR goal for the first trimester. 

Field Trip Chaperones: Chaperones are free of charge.  All other parents who wish to attend the field trip, unless you have a pass, must pay $15 to me before Oct. 26th.
