Mid Way Point

Students will be receiving their mid-terms on Thursday and this marks that there are 65 days or less of school left. I would like to thank the parents who came out for the PTO Night. We felt it was a great turn out and thank you for your support. Students have been studying the ancient Greeks and how their geography affect their society, the government of Athens (Democracy) and the impact that mythology had on their society. Starting next week, students will compare and contrast the difference between Athens and Sparta, The Persia Empire, Alexander the Great and the achievements of the Greeks.

I hope that everyone had a great long weekend and are really to make the push to the end.

Its Already February!!

Time passes so fast. I can't beleive it is already February and grades for mid-terms are on the 11th for teachers. This school year is passsing so fast. With that said, please understand that the school year is approaching the end and some studnets are struggling. Grades seem to go down the 3rd nine weeks due to students taking it easy. Please encourage your child to study every night either voc. words or their notes. Space Camp is right around the corner and there is a required field trip meeting on the 17th at 6:00. If you are unable to make that one, tow others will be offered on Wednesday the 18th at 1:30 and 3:15. Parents have to attend one of these meetings. I hope that everyone has a great week.
