Otter Project Information

First of all, thank you for all the wonderful feedback from the spaghetti dinner. The majority of the advice was to have the whole family served at once and I totally agree. In fact, when Ms. Erickson & I were reflecting that evening while cleaning up, we thought the same thing. I think next year, we will have families go table by table and do it that way. We had decided this way because we wanted the kids to serve their parents & families, but we can still make that happen when we do families or table numbers at a time. The main thing is, the kids had a great time and enjoyed themselves. By the way, we made $644 after expenses were paid. Thank you again for making this a great project for all of us.
Otter project requirements went home today. Each student picked out of a hat the season they got. Like the paper says, "the sky is the limit" be creative and have fun. Please take the time to start talking about these tonight. If you do, write project in the planner for free money.
Today, we had our SE states & capitals test. Most students did fantastic!! Way to go-much better than the last region.
We also had our math test today.
5 free assignment/late work tickets were issued today. Talk to your child about what they mean and what having at least 1/5 left by Dec. 21st means. Also, the students who don't lose any, get a $500 bonus. If you have the talk, write Polar Express in the planner for another $ bonus.
Reminder: Tomorrow is an early out-12:00 dismissal.
Thank you and have a great night.
