Updates
Parents the mid-quarter is right around the quarter on August 30th. Make sure your child has been finishing their work at home then turning it in everyday. Students who have miss days need to make sure they have checked the absent box and turned in any late work. Finally students who are forgetting to put their names on papers they turn in to me will start getting M (missing) scores until they find them and put their names on them from the missing names pile.

Coupon Book Sale 
Please make sure you are trying to help your child with this sale as the money will help the school out as well as get some really awesome prizes for people who sell the booklets. If you do not want to participate then send the booklet in as soon as possible so the school has them. Thank You.
