Good Morning Patriots! Today is Friday, April 9th! And….

Happy Assistant Principals/Dean of Students Day!!!!

 

And, here are the announcements for the week of April 12th- April 16th.

Yeah! Testing is OVER Today! Thank you to everyone for your patience and hard work during our ACT Aspire Testing Week!!!

Students- You MUST remember our Patriot Pointers EVERYDAY!!! 

Patriot Pointers

  • Check your school email daily.

  • Check your Google Classroom daily for important assignments and updates.

  • Charge your school issued computer nightly and bring to school everyday!

Let us continue wearing masks that cover your mouth and nose at all times and staying spread apart in the hallways. 

Monday is D.E.A.R. Day!!!  D.E.A.R. stands for “Drop Everything and Read,” a national month-long celebration of reading designed to remind folks of all ages to make reading a priority activity in their lives. It is also author Beverly Cleary’s birthday! D.E.A.R. programs have been held nationwide on April 12th in honor of Cleary’s birthday, since she first wrote about D.E.A.R. in Ramona Quimby, Age 8.

In her books, Beverly Cleary brought to life the characters of Ramona and older sister Beezus. On D.E.A.R Day, families are encouraged to take at least 30 minutes to put aside all distractions and enjoy books together. Get together with other readers, find someone to read to, or even just read alone.

 

Why not read a poem?!? After all, it is National Poetry Month. Be sure and check out our 7th Grade Poem A Day on our social media outlets. #poem-a-day
