Weekly News 9-16-11

Midquarter Monday
Where has the time gone?  Monday, Sept. 19 marks the midquarter of the first quarter.  You are encouraged to check your child's grades online after 3 p.m. to see your child's progress.  This is an excellent opportunity to ask your child about his or her impressions of the school year and personal effort.  Grades are a reflection of organization, effort, and following directions as well as ability.  Your child may need encouragement to talk with teachers and ask questions about subjects in which he or she feels confused.  Please contact me with concerns you have so we can team together to meet the needs of your child.  I feel our class has had an excellent start to the Junior High experience and are now "in the groove" of school.  

Student Email Accounts
Information about email accounts that are going to be set up in your child's name came home today.  Please sign and return the attached permission form.  This is just in time for our first writing project, a combined English/Literature Character Sketch based on The Prince and the Pauper by Mark Twain.
