I hope your Thanksgiving Break was a happy, loving, family time. You may now start the count down to Winter Break! Students have 3 full weeks and 4 days of school. I'm planning on making every class minute count toward your students goals. Please nudge your child to read every night, 20-30 minutes. Together, we can make a difference!
