Week of March 16th

Report cards are coming home on Monday the 16th. Please take it out of the envelope, sign the envelope and send the envelope back to school empty.  We will use this to send you the third trimester report card at the end of the school year.

Pleasantview Elementary Student Council is hosting a food drive for the month of March.   This is a time of year where the local food shelves are very much in need of replenishing. Please send any items you wish to donate to school with your child.  All donations are greatly appreciated.  

Reading Tip of the Week:

Read, read, read!  Read the same passage over and over until you can read it smoothly without stopping.  

Math mini-lessons have been going really well for the past 2 days.  We are already used to the routine and doing a great job keeping our voices low.  I think the students really like working on their own while I am working with small groups.

Spring pictures are on March 27th.  If you want to order a class picture or request a background for spring pictures the form (and money for a class picture) MUST be here on/by the day of pictures!
