We will complete the ELA and Math MAP(Measures of Academic Progress) Assessments on Tuesday, January 15th and Wednesday, January 16th. On these days, in particular, it is important that your child is well rested, has eaten a healthy breakfast, and is on-time to school. Students are encouraged to continue to bring a water bottle and healthy snack to school. Results will be shared at the end of the month.

We are Caring Coyotes
Last week on Wednesday, we met with Coyote Clubs and began our focus on: Caring Coyotes are ORGANIZED. There will be ways throughout the month where we will be highlighting books we read and activities to practice these qualities. A few places where you can follow our learning is on the Sideblog, Twitter, and Facebook.
