Friday, March 23



We had a great field trip to the Detroit Historical Museum today! Thank you to the chaperones who came along with us.

Thank you so much for your time at student led conferences this Wednesday and Thursday. It was wonderful sharing your child's successes with you and setting goals to work towards for the remainder of the year.

PLEASE ASK YOUR CHILD TO STOCK HIS/HER BINDER WITH PENCILS!!!
Many of us show up without any each day!!!

Please ask your child to pack headphones or earbuds in his/her backpack.  It would be best if they are a pair that can be left at school! Thank you so much!
