Message from Mrs. Sheppard
Happy Friday!
I cannot believe we are at less than 30 days of school left!!! Time is flying by!!! We will be starting our NWEA testing soon. All students in K-5 will take at least two of these tests. We are working on an incentive for them to do their very best on these last tests of the year!!!
Our Spring Carnival is this week and we hope you and your family will be able to join us. The baskets from the classroom are coming along and are REALLY impressive!!! I will send pictures this week of the baskets that will be raffled off. Thank you to all of our families for their donations to the classroom baskets. We can't do this without your help!!!
Next week in the Positivity Project we will be focusing on the trait of Purpose. Purpose means you have beliefs about the meaning of life and your life's purpose. Please take a minute to read through the explanation of this trait and discuss it with your family. Sometimes it helps to give them examples of how this trait fits into your own life.
Please be sure to read through this newsletter carefully so that you are aware of things happening at Graham. Please know that you can always reach me by email or CLASSDOJO if you have any concerns or questions or you can call me during school hours. If you would like to meet with me, I would ask that you please make an appointment with my secretary, Mrs. Harper. You can also email me or send me a message on snap connect to see if I am available to meet with you.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Mrs. Sheppard
