Class Update



Dear Parents and Caregivers,

First off, we had a very successful visit to the Crocker Art Museum last week despite our van breaking down! Students enjoyed the range of art they were able to see, and I hope that you all received the free family pass students received. I hope they all get a chance to go back!

Our first week of testing went fairly smoothly though we were unable to finish our ELA test completely due to internet connectivity problems at the county. Therefore, we will be finishing up ELA this Monday and then beginning our math test. Please continue to encourage a good night's sleep and nutritious meals throughout the week, and try to avoid tardies and absences if possible.

This Wednesday is a minimum day and an awards assembly. We will be thanking our classroom and elective volunteers with a brunch. Thanks to all of you who have given your time and energy to the students!

This Thursday, many students will be attending the Yuba Country track meet. Because our bus is no longer working, we are hoping we can get one more parent driver for this event. We will be leaving at 11:15. Please let me know as soon as possible if you can assist in driving students. We will call parents when we are returning from the track meet to arrange pick-up (around 6 pm).

Students not attending the track meet will still have a full day of school with assignments and activities they are expected to complete.

With just a few more weeks of school left, please discuss with your child whether all community service has been accomplished and help them stick to homework responsibilities by setting aside time after school for independent reading and other assignments.

Thank you for your support!
