Mrs. Greene's 3rd Grade
April 16, 2018
A Great Week!
I don't know about you, but Spring Break is always a much-needed week of fun and relaxation before the CRAZY that the last few months of school bring. With my sons playing baseball, I am at the baseball field 3-4 nights each week. I'm sure many of your kids are involved in spring sports. This time of year can get very busy.
Over the next two weeks we will be involved in ISTEP testing . This test will be given online. There is a math and language arts component. Our first test will be given Tuesday, April 17. Here are the days/times we test next week:
- Tuesday, 4/17 8:20 am
- Wednesday, 4/18 1:00 pm
- Thursday, 4/19 1:00 pm
Please let me know if you know that your child will miss a day of school. That helps as we prepare for make-up tests.
We had such a great time on our field trip to Eagle Creek! The first five parents that responded to the chaperone request were: Mrs. Kabaria, Mrs. Feiock, Mr. Paul, Mrs. Schmidt, and Mrs. Sullivan. THANK YOU for volunteering your time to spend your day with us.
Looking forward to a GREAT week next week!
Enjoy your weekend...
