Each day that all students are in class, that class earns a letter towards the spelling of “ATTENDANCE”. When the word gets spelled, that class gets to wear jeans! Please do your part and make sure your child is here every day possible! They miss out on so much when they are absent. Book in a Bag & Homework Our book in a bag has changed recently. We’re noticing several students not completing the appropriate assignments each night.
