Happy New Year!  I hope your holidays were filled with fun times with family and friends. I'd like to thank our room parent, Tricia Quidley, and the supporting room parents for a wonderful Winter Party.  It was obvious, based on the excitement in the room, how much fun the class had on that special day.  Also, I want to thank you again for the wonderful presents I received (just in case the thank you notes never made it home).  
         As we embark upon this new semester, we will be working very hard to prepare for the upcoming CRCT.  Make sure your student is prepared for school every day, completes all homework, and is actively reading a chapter book.  Studying and/or reviewing school work regularly is also beneficial to your student's success in school. I look forward to a great second half of 4th grade.
