Second Trimester

Monday was the first day of our second trimester.  Yesterday we talked about how this is an opportunity for a fresh start.  At the beginning of the trimester one assignment can have a huge impact on grades.  For example, a missing reading record might drop a student's reading grade a full letter or more.  On the flip side, one or two great assignments can raise the grade just as quickly.  Please check your student's planner to see if they have a note for a missing reading record yesterday or today.  Are there notes for any other missing work so far this week?  Encourage them to turn the missing work in as soon as possible.  Let's get the new trimester off to a wonderful start!
