Knights in the Know

Language Arts Strategy Night
We invite our parents to attend a Language Arts Strategy Night on Thursday, January 25, 2018. The meeting will begin immediately after our PTA meeting at 5:45 (we expect it to begin at 6:05). Our staff will present information about language arts which we believe will be helpful to you as parents as you listen to your children read at home. We will discuss the writing curriculum and rubrics used to monitor your child's progress. We will explain Istation summary sheets that are uploaded monthly into Fresh Grade.
Communication between home and school is valuable and leads to the success of our students. For this reason, we encourage all families to have at least one parent present on this evening. We will provide childcare for Blanton children. To help us plan, please RSVP with this form.
Noble Knights
Our Noble Knights for this week are both 3rd Graders who exemplify the character trait of leadership. Please help us congratulate these students. We are proud of their efforts.
Adalee Jones is a leader because she is a hard-worker who inspires others to do well. She makes the right choices no matter who is watching and her peers are able to look up to her and follow her lead. Adalee is always helping others to accomplish their goals and makes sure that all members of her group are included and successful.
Ryan Ogletree is a true leader in and out of the classroom. His classmates enjoy working with him because he thinks outside of the box and can help others without even knowing he is helping. Ryan strives to always do his best and to encourage others to do the same. Ryan is always pushing himself to work harder and produce work that exhibits this trait. We are lucky to have such a wonderful leader in our class.
