Week of February 23, 2024
From the Principal
Today, our 4th-grade students shared their STEM projects at a STEM Science Fair. They worked so hard on their projects, and it showed! They were able to apply the skills and strategies they learned in STEM with a science focus, solve problems, and test hypotheses. We thank everyone who was able to visit and support the fourth-grade students.''
Next week will be a fun and busy week. We will celebrate Read Across America and Dr. Suess's birthday with a dress-up week. See the information below. In addition, IREAD practice testing for 2nd and 3rd-grade students begins next week. Read Across America and IREAD are good reminders of the importance of reading, not just at school but at home. I encourage you to take the time to read with your child, letting them read and reading to them.
