Announcements:
  • Last Grading Period (4th quarter): Please, keep an eye on your child's grades and assignments. Typically, the last grading period is most difficult for students as they are so ready for summer!  Check Home Access with your child often (once or twice a week). The link to Home Access is on the Welcome Page. 
  • ​No More Spelling:  We've decided to stop our Spelling practice to begin preparing more for STAAR.
  • STAAR Homework: As a third grade, we will begin STAAR homework next week. Each week the kids will be given one reading passage with questions and one math review worksheet. These are to be completed at home as "homework" and returned back to school by Friday (each week). There will be a "homework" grade given for completing the STAAR Homework, therefore it is important that your child complete the reading passage/question and math review worksheet each week. Homework is to be turned in each week by Friday.
