Mrs. Lee's Class Newsletter
Week of September 23rd
What's Happening?
The school-wide reading program has begun. Students created accounts with Beanstack this week. They know how to log their minutes. Students who log at least 100 minutes per week will be eligible for the reading celebration at the end of the year.
Library for check-out on Monday.
ITBS testing starts Monday. We will test each day until lunch. Since our lunch schedule is different (11:57), there are no visitors for lunch during testing. Thanks for understanding.
We will also have sack lunches in our classroom on 9/30. Please no visitors on this day as well.
