Week of Oct. 21-25

Team Urban,

With the end of the 1st trimester approaching, conference email signups went out at 3:00 pm on Friday the 18th. If you have not done so yet, please sign up for a time slot.  There are plenty of times available still on Nov. 18th. This is a day of no  school for the students. Please remember each conference time is scheduled for 20 min., with a 5 min transition.  I know this time is short, however, make sure you are on time so other conferences are not impacted. If you are late, please email me to reschedule for another time slot.  

Students have until Nov. 1st to make their AR goal for the first trimester. 

Here are some pictures of the spirit days and Safari Park field trip.

Thank you to our chaperones Mrs. Cary, Mrs. Diercks, Mr. Young, Mr. Kingsley, and Mrs. Frisch during the field trip. It was our quickest entry into the park, thanks to Mrs. Sweis with the preordered ticket pickup, however, the latest time we have returned home in the history of the trip.

More soon to follow!
