Thank you so much for returning the weekly progress reports so promptly. The students really are most successful when we work together (home and school). They are doing so well. Parents, thank you for setting such a great example concerning the importance of academics and responsibility. I will send another progress report out this Tuesday (since Monday is a holiday). They should again be returned the following day. Thank you for your support.

Help needed: Special thanks to those families who have already sent in money. It is much appreciated. Each year I subscribe to TIME for Kids. It is a weekly current events publication for kids. I use these in the classroom for reading comprehension. It is a great way to teach them about the world around them, while also building reading skills. The cost is $4.50 per child for the year. If anyone is interested in donating or helping out (by sending the amount for your child) that would be greatly appreciated. All students will be receiving the publication regardless of the amount collected. Each class is given some money from the Halloween carnival earnings. I use this money throughout the year for projects. The remaining cost that is not donated for Time for Kids will be deducted from the usual carnival money for our class. I am just trying to make our carnival money stretch a little farther by offsetting this cost. I understand if you are not able to help with this at this time. Thank you so much for your help and support!
