Be on the lookout for your student’s 2nd quarter progress reports. They are being sent home today! Each student has worked very hard to continue making progress academically and socially/emotionally! I am thoroughly enjoying the learning that has taken place and am impressed everyday with their ability!

*Many parents have asked for homework over Spring break. I truly feel like the students need a break from our academic rigor. However, if you would like to implement Raz-Kids and Khan Academy into your routine, feel free! I am looking forward to continuing this year!
