Click your child’s grade to see what they are learning next week and how you can use this at home. This is updated every week. PK K 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th
Math Facts and Fluency Practice
It is always helpful if the students are practicing their math facts with you at home. This can be addition, subtraction, multiplication or division. Thank you for practicing with them.
When you are reading with your children, you can share the reading load, by you reading and them following along. You can also read a paragraph or page and have them read the next paragraph or page. Another thing that can help students with fluency is turning on the closed captioning on the TV.

We are seeing an increase in cases of strep throat. If your child complains of one or more of the following symptoms, please consider scheduling them a doctor's appointment: sore throat or pain when swallowing, stomach ache, vomiting only once, headache, or has a fever, tiny red spots on roof of mouth, or white spots on back of throat or tonsils.
Covid-19 is also on the rise. If you would like a free Covid-19 rapid antigen test, please contact the health office.
Winter is a season that we see more sickness. Please familiarize yourself with the NPS Illness Protocol and recommendations for Preventing Illness
