Just like that, Quarter 1 is over! Thank you for your support so far this school year. We've jumped right into conferences and report cards will be coming out on Monday, 11/8. The kids really have made tremendous growth over the past several weeks and are continuing to flourish in second grade. Kudos to all that you are doing at home with them, even if it's simply reading a book with them. It takes a team effort and you, me, and the kids are doing well. 😉
Next week is a little wonky, but we'll get through it! Please see below for dates and refer to this post for some more information about the Asynchronous Days.
