New Library
There are several reading areas where students are able to grab a book, cozy up, and get lost in their own imagination! Computers and Chromebooks are available for students to be able to access myOn, test on AR, and research any information they may need. The library will be open from 7:00am-7:50am. Additionally, all classes will have the opportunity to rotate in twice a week.
Millionaire Challenge
Who? Everyone: K-8th
What? Reading goals for number of words you read
Where? To find word count for specific books, go to AR Bookfinder @ http://www.arbookfind.com
When? When you read a book and take an AR quiz
Why? Word count is a common language that all readers can understand.
Students are encouraged to read for 30 minutes every day. Students will be able to test on a book that they have read through AR. If they pass the test, they will accumulate the words that they have read and work towards the Millionaire Club! Students receive prizes along the way as they hit each word goal. When they reach the Millionaire Club, students will have a Millionaire Bash at the end of the year!
Please pick up a book or log onto www.myOn.com to start reading!

Attendance
Our Campus attendance percentage was:
- 98.8% for the week of 9/10-14/18
- 98.8% for the week of 9/17-21/18
Encouraging regular school attendance is one of the most powerful ways you can prepare your child for success—both in school and in life. When you make school attendance a priority, you help your child get better grades, develop healthy life habits, avoid dangerous behavior and have a better chance of graduating from high school.
When kids are absent for an average of just two days of school per month—even when the absences are excused– it can have a negative impact. These absences can affect kids as early as Kindergarten.
