Happy Thanksgiving

Students were given progress reports yesterday, but I only got a few returned signed.  Please ask your student about this so you can review the report.  I did not assign a reading log this week so if your student is missing one he/she can get caught up this week during the break.  I have attached the Reading Log in case your student can not find his/her copy.  

Happy Thanksgiving!

Parent-Teacher-Student Conference

10/29/13

Parents & Guardians,

It's the time of year for Mandatory Parent-Teacher-Student Conferences.  I meet with all families to discuss your student's grades, work/study habits, and behavior.  I also need you to sign some important paper work.  Conferences will be scheduled after school for 15 minutes back to back.  Please be prompt and bring your student to the conference.

This year I am using a website (signupgenius.com) to schedule conference.  Below is a URL to this site as well as our classroom websites where you can find a link to the site.  If you do not have internet access you may call me at the school to schedule a time to conference. 

 

To sign up, go to:

www.mrskatz.webnode.com and find the link for conferences or
