Spring Weather

As temperatures begin to warm up, please remind your child that they will need a coat for recess if the temperature has not reached 60 degrees.  If they are playing and get warm, they are asked to tie their coat around their waist.


March is Reading Month

Third grade is sharing in the love of books by participating in a March Reading Madness Tournament of Books. Fiction and Nonfiction will face off in this tournament as we read a variety of both throughout the month and vote on our favorites. Each class has one or two books left to read and we'll be voting on the top half of the bracket next week. The Elite 8 will then face off.



Weekly Specials Schedule

Our specials are on a Monday-Friday schedule and the same time each day. 3rd grade specials begin right at 9:25 every day. Wednesdays will be used as make-up days for missed specials, extra computer lessons, music practice days, etc.
