Announcements (Important – please read):
   
1. State Testing: State Testing for the middle school class will run this week (M, T, Th, F).  Testing takes place in the mornings.  Please do not schedule appointments, or keep your student at home (unless he/she is really sick), during testing.  It is hard on the students to miss testing with their class, then to have to make it up while the rest of the class is learning new concepts.  If you have any questions, please let us know.
2. EE small group trips to Family Harvest Farm: Our next trip to the farm is this Friday, May 23.  If your student is going that day, please consider driving. The trip runs from 9:40~12pm for small groups, and 9:40~12:30 for the whole class.   Drivers need to have a copy of their 100,000/300,000 liability car insurance on file in the office to drive.  Students not attending the farm will do EE assignments at school.
