Graded paper folders are coming home today! Please review the papers in the folder with your child and return the sheet and the folder on Monday.
Thank you to everyone who has returned the report card envelopes that were sent home on Monday. If you still find one lying around in your house or lurking in your child's backpack, please sign it and send it back to me as soon as possible.
Inside of the graded paper folder there is a course selection form for middle school classes. This is the paper verification form and we need it signed and brought back no later than March 4.
Also, the county is requesting your help in completing parent surveys for your opinion of the school system and Short Pump Elementary. If you have already taken the survey online, please disregard the paper copy. If you have not, please fill out the paper copy and send it back. The responses are completely anonymous.
Next week is Dr. Seuss Read Across America week. We have a few fun activities planned! The students are going to be "competing" in a design challenge with a potato. The goal is for them to creatively reimagine a potato as a storybook character! The winning group gets their potato displayed in the library. We started brainstorming today and your children have some very creative ideas! Please help them bring in any supplies they think they might need to create their characters.
I know your child just got report cards on Monday, but interims for the Third Nine Weeks will be coming home on Friday, March 4. Be on the lookout for the newest batch of grades for this nine weeks.
