Character Trait of the Month
Compassion
Our character trait for May is COMPASSION. We define COMPASSION as showing empathy and concern for others. This month at Barbieri we will ask the question: why is showing COMPASSION to others important? Ms. Trosello has set aside many books to learn about COMPASSION that we are excited to read this month.
Families can take a look here for ways to support COMPASSION at home! At Community Meetings last week, La Reina de Diez drew names out of her box to be her special helpers to help create this months' challenges (3rd grade Queen drawing). Ask your student who got chosen from their grade level!
Take a look at our newest (and final) round of Hawk helpers getting ready for teacher appreciation week!

NO MOBILE DEVICES DURING TESTING๐ฒ๐ฑโ
During testing ALL MOBILE DEVICES ARE PROHIBITED. This includes cell phones, apple watches, etc. Please be sure to discuss with your child that if they chose to still bring these devices to school, they will need to give devices to their classroom teacher/testing proctor BEFORE testing begins. They will receive them AFTER the testing session has ended. This is NON-NEGOTIABLE. IF any device is set off (rings, vibrates, etc.) during testing, we risk having to invalidate test.
Thank you for your support at home and for understanding!
