Math Benchmarks
The final/optional math benchmark window will be extended. The original window was May 1st through 15th, and the new window will be May 11th through 22nd. I will ask for information on copies and opening this benchmark in Mastery Connect sometime after our return from Spring Break.
STEAM Challenge Reminders/Dates
I believe STEAM Challenges have been mostly wrapped up. Please use the following dates, information, and links in upcoming weeks:
- Complete your STEAM Challenges by this week (since we have our District Challenge at the very end of March, we were able to extend this date).
- Please download this letter to send home with the winning team for your grade level in your building. There is a portion for parents to return to you so that you can be sure of participation.
- Fill out this Google form when you have confirmed participation from parents (no later than March 6th). Be sure students names are spelled correctly, as this is what we will use to create certificates.
- When students return from Spring Break, remind those participating at the district challenge to be at FHHS at their specified time on March 31- just to keep it in their heads!
- Reminder: The county-wide competition is April 22nd at Francis Howell High.
