We have had a great second week of school.  Students seem to be settling in and getting back into the routine of school.  We have our first units of study underway and the students have proven that they can work hard and are ready to learn!  Great job, grade 5!

Below are some dates and other information for you:

Parent Night on Tuesday at 6:30 – we would encourage all parents to come out and meet the teachers, have some delicious snacks and hear some important information about Highroad.  Hope to see you there!

Comfort Kits – a letter came home this week asking each student to bring in a comfort kit.  Please hand these in as soon as they are ready.

BMV – Students will be tested on their first Bible Memory Verse this Wednesday.  It is on the blog under Bible Memory and a paper copy has also been given to them.

School Supplies – we are still missing some Bibles and other important school supplies.  Please bring these in as soon as possible.

Class Economy – this has been going well and in a few short weeks we will have our first class store.  We would LOVE some items brought in to help stock up our store.  These can be items that your kids don’t play with anymore or anything you can contribute.  Thank you!

Spelling List – whose, quick, entire, terrible, wonderful, select, calm, smooth, private, self.

**If your child goes on spelling city and gets 10/10 please put a note in their planner as they can get a bonus mark on their spelling test.**
