MRS. JOHNSON'S NOTES
Dear Parents,

Students had fun this week with our spirit days of Festive socks, Sweaters, and dress to represent your cultures and traditions. Students did a great job with the district assessments! They used all their test taking strategies and their scratch paper to help them answer all the questions. We will continue with district assessments this week.

There are more spirit days for students this week with color stable day on Tuesday, twin/team day on Wednesday, and PJs and slippers on Friday for our traditional Polar Express day. The students are also looking forward to their winter class parties this week. As a reminder, due to COVID restrictions, only the Room Parent & one helper are allowed to assist with the party.

Have a great week! Don’t forget to read every day!
