January 20

~We will not have school January 20. We have a county-wide teacher day at Southridge High School.

~Just to touch base, I am due February 7. Whenever I have the baby, I plan to take 10 weeks off and come back for the end of the year.

~I have sent the students’ scores from Dibels testing. If anyone has any questions about this report, PLEASE email me! I don’t want you struggling to read it or not understand what you are looking at.

~Right now January 22 is the 100th day of school. We will be doing all kinds of activities dealing with 100. If anyone would like to send in drinks for this day, please let me know!
