HELLO
3rd Grade
📸 Class Picture Day
Our class picture day is next week on Wednesday, January 15th. Please note that these are class photos only, not individual pictures. All students must be in full school uniform on picture day.
📚 Reading Small Groups
During reading intervention time, all third-grade teachers, instructional coaches, and Principal Henry will each be pulling one small group per day.
All students who scored below a Level 3 on the FAST test will be part of a small group for additional targeted support. Because these small groups take place at 2:25 PM, we kindly ask that you refrain from checking students out early unless it is absolutely necessary. This time is critical to ensure every student receives the support they need to continue growing and improving on the next FAST test.
Thank you so much for your continued support and partnership! 💙
