Last Day of School
Digital Learning at Home... Week 4 complete!
I hope week four was even better than last week! As time goes on this will continue to get easier and easier as it will just become a part of your every day routine until the last day of school on May 20th (which will be here sooner than we think). Don't forget to keep your child on a daily routine. Routine, routine, routine... it will make your life and your child's life easier! As a reminder, PLEASE make sure your child is logging-on to eCLASS every day and completing their assignments, that counts as their attendance!
Parents, also remind your child to log-on to Imagine Learning Language and Literacy. Please contact your child's teacher with any questions regarding this.
