Congratulations to Giovanni and Christopher, our Breakfast of Champions representatives for the months of January and February, way to go!! 

Wishing Well:

We are in desperate need of pencils.  Please send in a box of #2 pencils with your child.  Students also need erasers.  Also, check with your child to see if he/she needs a dry erase marker.  We use them daily.  Thanks so much to those of you who send in extra supplies and snacks for the class.  The children and I really appreciate your thoughtfulness.

FYI:

CRCT Assessment practice is on-line.  Each child was given a personal Georgia ID and password to access the website a few weeks back.  If you are in need of the website address or any other information please let me know so I can get that to you.
