First Grade Happenings!

October 05, 2018

Thank you to everyone who returned their parent/teacher conference time paper.  I would like to say that my late afternoon and evening slots are all full. Conferences run 15-minute intervals and only last till 6 this year, due to conferences being on a Wednesday night.  I am sorry if some did not get a time that works best for them. I tried my best to fill in the times that parents did request.  I have sent a final parent/teacher conference paper that is confirming your date and time.  Please return that on Monday, October 8th.

The Human Design Project paper was sent home Wednesday, October 3, 2018.  They need to be returned Monday, October 8, 2018. We will start presenting them.
