Spring Break - here we come!

This is the next to last day before spring break! WooHoo!!! I know that all of the students and not just in my class are ready! I will be gone on Friday the 12th to be with my Dad in Houston (he's had some health problems) so in a sense I will be starting my vacation a touch early.

Here are a few things to remember for when we get back from break:

1. Our snow day make-up days are April 2nd and April 24th. Now you did read this right - April 2nd is a Friday and April 24th is a SATURDAY! We will be attending class from 8a.m. to 12.p.m. I know that you may be shocked but it will fly by just wait and see!

2. April 6th is TAKS for 8th grade Mathematics and April 7th is TAKS for 8th grade Reading. Will you be ready? I hope so!

Have a great break and come back ready to work!

Whew!!!!

Today was the Writing TAKS - I'm really glad that it's over and done. My classes have been practicing for this day since the very beginning of the school year!! We have written about many, many topics so hopefully everyone did well. Don't forget to make sure of the dates of the next tests! They are going to be in April. Spring break is coming soon - I just know that everyone has big plans even if it's to relax at the house!!!!

Thursday will be the school's first track meet of the year. I can't wait to see how my students perform. Chloe is running hurdles for sure so we'll have to really root her on!!!

Please feel free to contact me with any questions and or concerns!!!
