Fire Safety Presentation

We were fortunate to have Dalton Downey's Dad come visit us for a Fire Safety lesson to both our classes. He is a fire fighter for Saint Joseph Township. He shared some great information about the importance of making a Fire Safety Plan with your family, as well as how important it is to close your bedroom doors at night. Check out the video below. Lastly, Smoke Detectors should be replaced after 10 years from the date they were made, and it is important to have ABC fire extinguishers in the garage, kitchen, and basement. But should only be used by an adult. 

Video-Close before you doze

Report Cards

Your child's report card will be coming home on Friday.  Please keep all the contents and return the signed envelope with your child.  Please reach out to your child's teacher if you have any questions or concerns.


Cold Weather

Now that we are getting into colder weather patterns, please check the weather so that your child has the necessary clothing--boots (when there is snow on the ground), hats, coats, and gloves/mittens--to be going out for recess.  We do go out most days unless it is raining or below zero wind chills!


Math Unit 3 Home Resources

We are beginning Unit 3, Addition and Subtraction within 1,000, this week.  In this unit, students

use their understanding of place value to round whole numbers and to add and subtract within 1,000. They also solve two-step problems. Check out the family support video!
