If your child is not going to be in school either of these days, it is important that they schedule a time with me to take the test. As always, I am available before school on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 8:30 - 8:50 to help students with math.
Students, be sure to score your homework assignments before you return to school on Tuesday, February 16th. We started these assignments together on Wednesday as part of our review for the ISAT. If you get a problem incorrect, be sure to go back and check your answer. On Tuesday, we will go over any problems you had difficulty solving. I hope you are enjoying your long weekend!
