This Week: August 21st to August 25th
Important:
We will have a rainy day schedule on Monday to respect the many cultures represented at Tully. Those students who want to view the Solar Eclipse may do so with appropriate eye wear during art. Remember not to look at the sun directly, during the Solar Eclipse on Monday, as this could cause permanent eye damage.
Please, join us for our Open House this Thursday night from 5:30-6:30 P.M! Our class is working hard on respect and listening skills and I am proud to say I see a great deal of Tully Tiger pride.
Thank you for checking Friday folders and getting parent signatures. I will send them out on Monday this week, as I wanted students to complete a self reflection of last week in order to encourage the most progress.
