4TH GRADE
4th Grade STAAR is over for this year and so is my time in 4th grade. I have had a great time being back at Meadow helping prepare the students for STAAR, but it is now time for Mrs. Wesley to return. I know the students are excited to have their teacher back to finish out the year.
As always, please keep your child READING, READING, READING to help them stay on track for 5th grade next year. I hope everyone has a wonderful summer!
Mrs. McCormick
El STAAR de cuarto grado terminó este año y también mi tiempo en cuarto grado. La he pasado muy bien estando de regreso en Meadow ayudando a preparar a los estudiantes para el STAAR, pero ahora es tiempo de que la Sra. Wesley regrese. Sé que los estudiantes están emocionados de tener a su maestro de regreso para terminar el año. Como siempre, mantenga a su hijo LEYENDO, LEYENDO y LEYENDO para ayudarlo a mantenerse encaminado para el quinto grado el próximo año. ¡Espero que todos tengan un verano maravilloso! Sra. McCormick
