1. Reading State Assessments will be given the week of March 25th-29th and Math Sate Assessments will be given the week of April 1st-5th. Please try to schedule appointments around these dates. Students should get a good nights sleep and a solid breakfast on the days of testing. I will send home a more specific schedule with times once I have that available.
2. FFA Farm Day will be on April 12th. We will ride the busses to the Leavenworth County Fairgrounds where the high school FFA class will teach us about many different aspects of life on a farm. The kids will enjoy a hayride, lunch at the fairgrounds, and get to see lots of farm animals. This day will all be outside, please make sure that your child is dressed for the weather and has good solid shoes on. No flip-flops or sandals please.
3. The Museum at Prairie Fire field trip will be on Thursday, April 18th. Busses will leave about 9 a.m. and return to school by 2p.m.
Permission slips for both of the field trips were sent home this week. Students need to return those with their lunch choice for both the FFA and Prairie Fire trip. If parents would like to attend the Prairie Fire event the cost is $5.50 and will be paid at the museum that day. I can have two parents ride the bus for the Prairie Fire event. If you would like to ride please note that on your permission slip and I will let parents know who the lucky winners are for the day.
