Important dates to be in school!
Hi parents! I am getting a lot of questions about when is a good or bad time to be gone from school. These are some dates that I would ask you not to miss! We have CRT testing and their country reports due in the same two weeks. If they miss a day, it’s that much more work to get them caught up! So if you can please try and be here! Thanks!
June 7- 18!
Also- Their county program will be on June 28th. They will have worked so hard and it is their chance to show off and be proud of their work!
Typing Practice at home!
Hi parents! During conferences I have had some parents ask me how they can practice their typing at home. Our typing teacher has posted some great links on the Foothills school website! I seeom to have misplaced my list of parents who were asking about it, so hopefully you get this message! The typing links are down at the very bottom of the links page.

Measurement Test and Math box
Parents,
We’re extending the measurment unit into this week! A packet has been sent home for them to work on during the week. It will be due on Friday. There is also a game that they can play about perimeter that was sent home. Their test will be on Wednesday. They need to be able to convert measurments. ex. 8 quarts= 2 gallons, etc. We have learned both metric and customary in capacity, length, and mass. They have all of the conversions in their math notes, which they can take home to study and in their planners on pg. 5!
Film Club
Due to conferences and my not feeling well, we’ve moved yesterdays film club meeting to next Wed. Sorry about that!
Report Card Error
Parents! There is an error on your child’s report cards. It has some students listed with a number of unexcused absences. We don’t even do unexcused at this school. I talked with our secretary and she has said that it’s a district mistake. We will hopefully get that taken care of for you. We have to make some calls to the district to figure out what happened there! So, for now, just disregard it.
Wednesday
It’s time for conferences again! They are Wed. and Thurs. from 4-7:30. I sent home report cards today along with the time scheduled for your conference. If you can’t make it, please let me know. If you need to schedule a different time, please contact me and we will see what we can do!
We will be having our film club meeting Wed. for “Newsies”.
Lastly, remind your kids to wear a little something green. I will remind the students that pinching is not allowed, but it wouldn’t hurt to be a little cautious. : )
Report Cards
Parents- Report cards come home on Monday- hopefully! That is when I can print them, so I will try to put them together and get them to you!
Conferences are scheduled for Wed. and Thurs. next week from 4:00- 7:30. You will get a reminder of the time you signed up for with the report card. If you didn’t schedule a time, I assigned one to you. If you can’t make it, please let me know! Thanks so much! Look forward to seeing you all!

Parent Survey

Also, they were assigned their counties today. I will be sending home some information about it tomorrow for you to see.
Stamps!
Please remember to have your students bring a stamp to mail out their letters to their county on Monday!
-Also, Their Pioneer Poem is due on Monday. They need to have their parts memorized!!!!
Friday!
There are a few things I forgot to have them put in their planner tonight! Mostly just reminders.
1) Don’t forget your county choices and your stamp tomorrow!!!!
2) Book Battle forms must be turned in tomorrow to count! And they must be signed!!!!
3) Read-a-thon tomorrow!
