MEAP and Friday

The MEAP parent letter is going home today.  It should be in your child's backpack.  Please be on the look out for it.  Also, remember that the 5th grade MEAP is given in the fall, and it assesses what was learned in 4th grade.  Overall, the scores look really good.  If you have any questions about what the scores mean, please do not hesitate to ask.

Friday, April 1st is a free-dress for $1.  Also, we will be going to The Diary of Anne Frank at 9:00 am.  We will be returning to school by about 1:00 pm.  We'll eat lunch then.  Again, if you have any questions, please let me know.
