ISTEPS….HERE WE GO!
It is time to show the world how
much we have learned. ISTEPS
are our Oscars, our Super Bowl,
our Stanley Cup. It’s our time to
SHINE like the stars we are.
Parents– you are your children’s
greatest fans and best supporters.
How can you make sure they have
the best opportunity for success on the ISTEP test?
• Make sure your child gets plenty of rest, including this weekend.
• Make a healthy breakfast full of protein and nutrients every day.
• Stay positive! Encourage your child with positive notes and lots of
love. Tell your child every day and before they go to sleep every night
that YOU BELIEVE IN THEM!
CONGRATULATIONS to our 1ST
PLACE MATH BOWL TEAM!
They earned a score of 24 out of
28 and earned 1st in their division.
WE ARE PROUD OF YOU!
We celebrated Dr. Seuss’ birthday today with a stop, drop and read ses-
sion and a pajama day. Shown below is head custodian, Mr. Bennett,
reading a Dr. Seuss book to 3rd graders.
Don’t forget that the book fair started
today and will end next Thursday.
Thank you and have a
great weekend.
