Class Store Donations Welcome!

A big thank you to those families who have so generously donated materials for our class store!  The kids are going to be SO excited and it is a great way to pass on toys or small items (books, pencils, pens, etc) that are no longer being used at your house!

The class store is scheduled for this Friday but students are going to have to EARN the right to participate and have the class store.  Right now, with a change in schedule due to MAP testing, students haven't been on their best behaviors.  Sleepiness, forgetting items at home, not listening to directions and ALL the talking has been getting in the way of our learning.  If we are losing time for learning, we are losing time for the more fun things as well.  Some students don't even have money at this point for our class store because with bad behavior and poor choices come fines.

My hope is that students can improve behaviors and earn the chance for the class store so it doesn't have to be rescheduled.

I appreciate the families that are having a frank conversation with their students about the expectations while they are at school as well as appropriate behavior.  Thanks for your support both at school and at home.
