Hello, Waters Landing community!
We need your help. We are trying to start a boys running club for students in Grades 3-5, but we need sponsors. Please consider signing up to assist by clicking the link below.
Families with students in Grade 2, 3 and 5: Please look for a paper copy of the online Gifted and Talented form for you to fill out and send back to school. You will only need to complete either the online or the paper version of the form. We want input from all families. The form will come to all second graders, and students who are either new to MCPS or being rescreened in other grades. If you have any questions, please email Kevin Sandell at Kevin_Sandell@mcpsmd.org.
The results are in from our mid-year reading and math assessments. We are making progress, but we still have some work to do. Thank you to our amazing staff for all of the planning and preparation they do to ensure our students are learning each day. How can you help at home? Make sure your students are reading outside of school and practice addition and subtraction facts in K-2 and multiplication and division facts in Grades 3-5. Ask your child's teachers for resources.
Please review the information below. We want to continue building a strong home-school connection.
Have a fantastic week!
Proud to be a Dolphin,
