Rose Hill Elementary
February 2015 Newsletter
We have an exciting month with multiple events coming up. Please take a look at the upcoming events list to mark your calendars.
Time is going by very quickly and without noticing we will be in March, which is testing season. From March 2nd until March 20th, student will be taking the PARCC tests. PARCC stands for: Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers. It is a group of states working together to develop a set of assessments that measure whether students are on track to be successful in college and their careers. Please make sure that your students arrive on time to school so they take the test on time.
Please visit:
www.parcconline.org for more information, or ask our teachers during parent teacher conferences on Feb. 20th.

Some sample questions you may ask your student's teacher are:

2. Do you give homework every day?
