Can't believe that today was the last day of the third quarter!!!  Today the children set their new goals for A.R. reading. Please ask your child what they told me they wanted to reach.  Remember too parents that in the 4th quarter A.R. reading is worth 10% of your child's reading grade to get them prepared for fourth grades 25%.

The next two week are full weeks, so hopefully we can get a lot accomplished before our Easter break.
