Notes from your teacher:

Students did a nice job getting homework in last week for their first week. No late work all week long! Please make sure you sign your child’s planner each night and return tests, signed.

Thankfully, it will be cooler in our classroom this week. It is difficult to push students too much when they are “wilting” in their seats, but this week will be much more comfortable. We will be getting back into our routine.

When you read the Gazette online, please forgive the missing spaces. I don’t know what happens when I transfer my file over. They magically disappear. (I have enough mistakes without magic).
