Mrs. Cox, Mrs. Townsend (our student teacher) and I have challeneged our students to learn the 44 Presidents, in the order that they served, by the end of February for 10 bonus points in Social Studies. Have fun and be creative!

Mrs. Angela Townsend is our student teacher in our classroom until March 13th. Mrs. Townsend is working towards her degree in elementary education. She is a wonderful addition to our classroom.

January Student of the Month

Congratulations to Austin Bollinger, our January Student of the Month. Our character trait for January was Perseverance - working hard and never giving up. Austin exhibits these characteristics in and out of the classroom daily and I am very proud of all of his hard work this year.

News/Notes

I hope this entry finds everyone safe and warm. I know that it has been a long week and has been extremely difficult for many and for some the struggles continue. I think most of the students enjoyed returning to a routine today and found some comfort in the familiar. Following are a few announcements for this week:

The PTO meeting scheduled for tonight, Monday, February 2nd, has been cancelled.

Progress Reports will go home on Wednesday, February 4th - please note that with all of the missed days there may not be many grades for some subjects.

Our party celebrating January birthdays will be held this Friday, February 6th (rescheduled from last Friday). Our party celebrating February birthdays will be held on Friday, February 27th.

Thank you as always for your continued support, I appreciate you!
