Hi, parents!! We had such a fun week! We're growing our reading muscles already!! I'm so proud of your kiddos!!
A few reminders...
- We have finished testing NWEA. The printout of the overall achievement is coming home today. Details for reading the info are on the back of the printout. Please let me know if you have any questions.
- Make sure to register your child for our Hutchings Color Run! Go to http://shop.schoolathon.org/191514. Our group ID is 150402. This is the BIG fundraiser for the year! Packets are due Sept 16th.
- Even if you are not turning in fundraiser money, you still need to sign the envelope and return it to school so your child can participate in the run. If you do not want him/her to participate, please let me know. Please see the attached for a copy of the form you need to fill out and sign in order for your child to run!
- The PTO is also still looking for volunteers for the Color Run! To help, please email Randi at: randie.m.mealey@gmail.com if you're interested in helping with the Run on October 4th.
- If you would like to volunteer in our classroom, please see the sign up sheet for available slots! (https://www.signupgenius.com/go/60b0e4eadaa2a1-mrs9) Make sure your volunteer background check paperwork has been turned in to the office. That must be completed at least a week before you can volunteer in the classroom!
- Please make sure you frequently check Seesaw so you're up to date with the latest happenings in our classroom! If you need that information re-sent, please let me know!
- Please make sure your child has a healthy nut/sesame free snack for our morning snack time. (We do not have afternoon snack in 2nd grade.) Also, please make sure their water bottles are spill-proof! We've already had several spills.
