Ebert Updates
Dear UMAC Parents,
I greatly appreciate your support last week helping your child study for the Northeast states and capitals test and the spelling test. While we realize this is a lot, we also want to help your child learn effective study habits. We had a great class discussion about different ways students were studying at home and tips for remember the capitals and spelling of each state.
I appreciate your support at home!
