Let's Sparkle in 3rd Grade!

March 2-6, 2026

March 3 - 3rd Grade Day: Students may bring items to school that begin with either the 1st or 3rd letter of their first name. They may also wear clothes that begin with either the 1st or 3rd letter of their name. 

If you have missed school, please return to school with all your homework, even if you haven't finished it all. You most likely will need to use the unfinished lessons in class when you return. Thanks. 

 

Cookbook: It's time to come up with a favorite recipe to submit for the class cookbook (breakfast, main meal, salad, dessert, snacks/appetizers, candy, breads, drinks, vegetables, cookies/bars). Try not to bring such a lengthy or difficult recipe to write. This becomes a lot of work for the students. You may bring a couple of possibilities, so that we can get an assortment of recipes submitted. We will have a “cookbook party” sometime in May. 

 

Orange Folder: Check if you have homework that is due tomorrow! 

This folder should be returned to school each day.

Please notify the office if your child has alternate plans at the end of the day. 
Please call the office if you have a child that is sick. 

We would like to have all the busing changes and attendance to go through the office and not the teachers. We often do not check our phones while teaching. 


If you need to reach me, and I don't need to reply right away, please leave a message on my cell phone. If I don't reply to a text message, assume that I have not read it.
