Greetings one and all,

Here is the homework for a Tuesday night:

1.  YAH!!!!  Celebrate, today was the final day of M-step testing for us.  The kids did AMAZING!!!  No worries.  Again, the state is targeting September for results to come back to you via mail.

2.  Math Re-tests tomorrow.  Unit 7
*Don't stress here...no one in the class failed, but several students were frustrated that they didn't score as high as they wanted, so I am offering a re-test Wednesday to all students.  Seems like the majority are taking it.
*Students scores cannot go lower, no worries there.  Very stress free.
*Tests WILL go home tonight, and be brought back tomorrow though, so check out how your student did on Monday and ask them if they are Re-taking it tomorrow.

*Don't forget Safety Patrollers that the banquet is Wednesday night.  I'll be there a little before 6:00pm.  Should be a great night.  Pick-up is 7:15pm.

3.  Practice Map test tomorrow over the West Region.

That's all for today folks,
