Our class read a total of 10,278 minutes at home during the month of March! The top 3 readers for March are Nick with 3,901 minutes, Alexis with 905 minutes, and Michael with 620 minutes! Great job readers!

All this reading paid off when it was time to take the reading portion of the NWEA. We took it last Monday and all but 4 students met their target!

Track and Field Day

I just wanted to let everyone know that Field Day is set for Friday, May 21st! Track events, cross country, and fun activities will all take place on the practice football field the same as last year. There will be no make-up date! If it rains, we will have something planned for the gym! Please contact Ms. Franklin if you would like to volunteer!

PSG Needs You!

PSG is is need of a few good men-ok, you know what I mean:) With the book fair, the flower sale, and the grandparent's breakfast quickly approaching the PSG could use some extra volunteers. If you have some time to spare during the week of May 3rd for the book fair or on the morning of May 5th to help sort flowers, or the morning of May 7th for breakfast they would love to hear from you.

Read Across America

From our guest reader, to the snacks and drinks, we took about an hour to enjoy some quiet reading time. I know that some finished a book but others of us have a few more chapters to go-we may even finish them tonight! Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss.
