Miss Brown's Bulletin
Week of February 29-March 4
Leader of the Month
Our Leader of the Month for the month of February is...(drum roll please)...RYDER! Ryder does a great job of putting 1st things 1st: each morning he comes in, turns in his completed homework, has his planner signed, goes to breakfast and comes back to the room and works towards meeting his AR and Compass goals...without being told to do so! Ryder shows kindness to his classmates and is always following Cartmell expectations. Ryder synergizes to help pick up the room each day, and is always working hard in class. Keep up the great leadership!

Materials
We are in need of erasers! If you wouldn't mind sending some in for the class that would be great!
Also, please check with your child to make sure they have working headphones. Students use headphones daily and if they do not have a pair or you need help getting some, please let me know so I can help them get the supplies they need to succeed.
