As a good reminder, when students miss school and are absent, it is their responsibility to talk to their teachers about work that they missed and use Canvas to check on what happened during class!

PACK:
This week we are presenting our "demonstration speeches." It has been great getting to watch all the hard work the students (and parents) have been doing on these. If you have not seen what your student did please ask them to show you. We have had amazing videos on safety, cooking with delicious treats, sports, and everything in-between. We will also be covering Test Taking Strategies as the students prepare for the ISAT practice test and real test. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
