It's Tuesday. There Must Be Some News.

Midterms Coming Home Today
Medterms aren't an official report card, just a quick overview of where we stand at this point. Please take a moment to look them over, notice the good and the not-as-good-as-it-could-be, and discuss your child's progress with him/her. Also, please return the bottom portion of the form with your signature and any comments or questions.

Midterms are coming home in sealed envelopes. They should still be sealed when they reach you. One of my great annoyances in the classroom is comparing grades. "What did you get?" and "I got an A." and "How many A's did you get?" The class and I have discussed this before, and reviewed it again today, that grades are for the student, his/her parents, and the teacher. That's it. We are not in the comparison business. Teachers don't judge students compared to other students. More importantly, God doesn't compare us either.

Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.

Choir Note from Mr. Altis
The third/fourth grade choir will be singing at the 8:00 church service on October 19. More information is on a yellow note coming home today from Mr. Altis.

Scrip from Early Registration
Katy, Kyra, Mariah, Kyle, and Zack are bringing home Scrip from early registration. Parents, please look for those in your child's homework folder. If you were expecting this, it could be going home with another sibling, but those 4 are all I received. If you have questions, please contact the Scrip office.

Just Another Reminder About Picture Day
