I am glad to be back! The students have been very welcoming and on-task. Thank you for understanding and supporting my family through the last quarter. I know Mrs. Stalcup did an amazing job and everyone will miss her! She made some changes for the students and parents. I will try my best not to shake things up too much, but it might take me a couple of weeks to iron everything out. I am still looking to use Class Dojo as my behavior management system. Report cards should be out Wednesday. I have grades and comments from Mrs. Stalcup. If you have any questions about those, I can communicate with her to get you those answers. This quarter will start off with three digit addition and subtraction. We will also spiral back to some previous reading skills with the story Officer Buckle and Gloria. Finally, please let me know if there are any changes to dismissal or after schools activities while I was gone. Thank you and let me know if you have any questions or concerns! -Mr. McDannald | Reminders: |

We are moving right along. My grade book is filling up and the AR goals are being met! We have quite a busy week. Here are some reminders for the week: 1. Open House is after the PTA meeting scheduled for September 12, 2017 @ 6:30 PM. 2. Sign up through Bloomz for Parent-Teacher conference.

Permission slips for the Farm Day Tour field trip needs to be in by Friday Sept. 22 for lunch count purposes. - - - We should finish the second unit of our math book by this Friday or next Monday.
