Announcements
Students may wear green tops with uniform bottoms to school on Friday to celebrate St.
Patricks Day!

For the next monthly report (instead of a book report), the students will be constructing and
testing their own marshmallow catapults! This report will be for the months of March and April.
More information to come!

March Reading Log is due Monday, April 3rd.

If you would like to donate any items to our treasure box, please send them in with your child!

We would love if any parents would be interested in donating a basketball, soccer ball, and a

football to purchase as some of the larger treasure box options (These will be worth a lot of

behavior money and require months and months of saving)!

Reminders
Please check your childs daily folder and agenda. The agenda contains important
information regarding assessments, assignments and projects. It also contains assignments
from the day that may need to be completed as homework.

Please try to remind your student to bring two snacks each day. We are letting them know it is
their responsibility to make sure they pack them.

If your child brings home work in the Not Finished Yet section of the daily spiral, that work
needs to be finished as homework. This work should be turned in the next day.

Chapel is every Tuesday morning. Please have your child wear the chapel uniform and proper
accessories (ties and cross-ties).
