Parent Connection
Did you know that you can check to see if your child is completing/turning in work and view your his/her grades through Parent Connection? It is a great way to check and make sure that when your child tells you they don’t have any homework – they really don’t have any homework (unfinished classwork)!
Click HERE to view how to access Parent Connection!!!
We will be updating the grades in the gradebook throughout the week. Please be sure to check in and see how your child is doing with content application and assignment completion.
Student Dress Code Reminders
In order to assist students and parents to comply with this provision, the following guidelines have been developed. The school administrator and staff will uphold the following regulations:
- Clothing should not be so torn or so loose fitting as to be inappropriate or immodest.
- Students are not to wear items of clothing which have obscene or vulgar statements or pictures, which promote alcohol, tobacco, or illegal substances. Shirts that convey a negative attitude should not be worn to school. Also, students should not wear clothing that promotes violence or fighting; such as “wrestling t-shirts”.
- Shoes or footwear must be worn at all times. No flip flops, open toes, or sandals.
- Hats or hoods are not to be worn in the building. Hats must be kept in the student’s cubby or locker during the school day.
- Makeup and all other cosmetic products are prohibited. This includes fake fingernails and “tattoos”.
- No bare midriffs, “fishnet” shirts, bare backs, halter tops, spandex, spaghetti straps, low cut or loose fitting tank shirts or transparent clothing are permitted at any time. However, sleeveless tops that fit tightly around both the shoulder and are 2 inches in width will be permitted. In general, school clothing should be age appropriate and modest.
- Shorts, skirts, and dresses must be at least fingertip length when one’s arms are extended straight at one’s sides.
- Coats and jackets, and other outerwear should not be worn in class.
- Cell phones and smart watches are to remain in backpacks until students exit the building during dismissal.
Students who arrive at school inappropriately dressed will be referred to the principal and asked to remedy the problem. This may involve being sent home to change a particular article of clothing. Thanks in advance for your cooperation in helping us create an environment conducive to learning.
Math Big Ideas Chapter 2
In Chapter 2 of the Big Ideas Math curriculum, our third graders dive deeper into the world of multiplication and division. This unit focuses on building a strong foundation with these operations by helping students see the connection between repeated addition and multiplication, as well as between equal sharing and division.
Students will practice using arrays, equal groups, and number lines to represent problems in different ways. They will also begin to recognize multiplication and division as inverse operations—an important skill that supports problem-solving and fact fluency.
Our goal is not just memorization but understanding. By exploring patterns, visual models, and real-world situations, students develop strategies that make multiplication and division more meaningful. Parents can support at home by encouraging children to practice multiplication facts, notice equal groups in everyday life (like snacks, toys, or chores), and talk about how division helps us share things equally.
This chapter lays the groundwork for many future math concepts, and with continued practice and support, students will gain confidence as mathematicians!
Fall NWEA MAP Family Reports
This week, your child will be bringing home their Family Report with results from the fall NWEA MAP Test. It is very common for students to show a slight dip from their spring scores due to the “summer slide.” Rest assured, as students return to “school mode,” many will see growth and progress when we test again later this school year.
We encourage you to be open to conversations with teachers as we work together to support your child. Our shared goal is simple: for your child to learn and grow to their fullest potential. At times, outside factors—such as behaviors, medical concerns, or even lack of rest—can impact learning. By working as a team, we can address these barriers and help your child succeed.
We look forward to partnering with you this year to ensure your child achieves all that they are capable of! If you have any immediate questions regarding these scores, don’t hesitate to reach out.
