~*~*~*~*~*~*~WELCOME TO SIXTH GRADE~*~*~*~*~*~*

We are still in need of batteries.  Several students have brought batteries in multiple times for our calculators.  Students rely on these batteries for everyday math class.  I am unable to continue purchasing batteries- we may need a few more by the end of the year, if you have not brought in batteries, we would appreciate your kindness :)

*****PLEASE bring in the following (if you haven't already)*****
                   AAA BATTERIES
                   Tissues
                    Highlighters
                    Rulers
                    Protractors/compasses

* * *Reminders* * * :
1.  Math tutoring will be held on Thursdays.  All that is needed is confirmation (phone call/email/note) from a parent that your child has permission to stay after school  (until 3:30).  - Please contact me at any time if additional help is needed :)
2.  If a student misses 3 homeworks, they are assigned a detention, please help your child stay organized and check their planner nightly!
