SCHOOL NEWS AND VIEWS

This week's update:
Happy Friday, Holy Cross Family,
I hope that you all had a great week. The Thanksgiving holiday is coming up next week and after that we are looking forward to Christmas. There is lots going on including Christmas programs and performances and all of the festivities. Please do your part to help keep your children grounded during this busy time as we still need to teach and students still need to learn.
I spent some time reviewing the I-ready information on our students and I was both happy and disappointed.I was happy to see that so many of our students are taking full advantage of this valuable tool and are completing their 45 minutes per week with a good score. Keep up the good work! It was disappointing to see that some of our students, including some students who REALLY need the help, are very rarely logging on and completing their I-ready. We need for all of our parents to do their part! Education involves full participation from all involved parties... teachers, students and parents.
Kindly address the issue of appropriate jackets and sweaters over this weekend if you have not already. Ibiley does have hours on Saturday.
I have included calendar information below, but as reminder, the EARLY CHILDHOOD THANKSGIVING PROGRAM is this Tuesday beginning at 9AM. This is for the parents of students in PK2 through K5 and we certainly do hope that the parents of these beautiful children are able to attend.
Have a great weekend,
Mrs. Mackey
