Week of April 1

Monday, March 25^th, will be rotation day 6. Mrs. Eger’s homeroom will have computers. 

           Most classes have completed their PA projects.  Please keep an eye out in your child’s Spartan folder for the project.  Many students are losing points because of spelling mistakes that were addressed on their outlines when I checked them.    

Please help our school and our classroom with our PTA Basket Raffle.  Our class theme is “Hot Drinks.”  We would greatly appreciate any and all donations to help our class basket be the best in the school!  An ideas list went home a few weeks ago in your child’s Friday Folder.  Please have all donations to our classroom by April 12^th.  If you have any questions, please let me know!!

          PSSAs are quickly approaching.  ELA tests days are April 15, 16, and 17.  Math test days are April 29 and 30.  Science test days are May 1 and 2.  Since Social Studies is not a tested subject, starting April 1, Social Studies time will be used to work on study skills and practice skills for ELA, Math and Science.  We will continue handwriting. 

·        Tests start at 9:00 AM.  Please have your child at the school at their regularly scheduled time or they will need to sit in the office for the duration of the test.  Any missed sessions will be made up at a later time. 

·        Please have your child refrain from bringing any electronics to school during the PSSA tests.  All electronics will be collected and placed in a bag outside of the classroom during the test each day. 

·        Our schedule will change on testing days, but we will still have special. 

·        Students should try their best to have a good night’s sleep and a nutritious breakfast before the tests each day.

          Our field trip to Indian Echo Caverns is quickly approaching!!  It is on Friday, May 17^th.  A lime green paper came home in their Spartan Folder with information regarding the trip.  If you need another one let me know! 

·        Only PTO parents need to return the slip at the bottom of the paper if they would like to chaperone the trip.  Cost is $20.  Payment needs to be submitted to Mrs. Eger by April 8^th. 

·        The trip is during regular school hours.  Students will not need to come early or stay late. 

·        Please contact Mrs. Eger with any questions or concerns. 

Please remember to look at the important dates (to the right) for other important happenings in April.
