Watch the kids LEARN!!!!!!!!!

Growing up can be "different!"

Last Friday our class had a discussion about how we getting sweaty and smelly usually after PE and Recess. We discussed that usually around 4th-6th grade it becomes time to starting wearing deodorant. I am so thankful that I have VERY active students but unfortunately this can lead to a smelly room in the afternoon. If your child would like to keep deodorant in his/her cubbie that is perfectly fine and they may reapply after recess.

Talk with your Child!!!

Speak with your child about being on their best behavior when they go out in pubic for a field trip. Remind your child that when they go out on the school bus they represent themselves, their teacher, parents and school.


Please make sure your child gets a night's sleep. On Monday I had several sleepy student who struggled to focus!
