Week 17

Welcome Back! I hope the break was restful and well-spent with family and friends. I am looking forward to diving into 2019 with a lot of fun activities including the start of Mitchellville and practicing for our upcoming play, "Vacation to Mars!"

Log your child's reading at home, practicing Math Facts and taking AR quizzes!!

This fun experience will begin after break and continue through the remainder of the year. Look for information to be sent home in your child's Student Planner regarding the laws and job application process!
