It's Monday! Let the new week begin!

Good Morning Fourth Graders,
It's the last day of February!
Our Writing Project was due today, but because of all our snow days, we have a few extra days to work on them. Please use your time wisely so you can finish your writing by the end of the week.

Announcements: 
  • No After School today. No Basketball practice. No Cheerleading. The teachers have a staff meeting.
  • I will be leaving early (2:45 p.m.) tomorrow because I have to go to a class.
  • I have not heard about make-up basketball games, so ask Miss Dete if you see her.
Make it a good day!
