Jan. snack calendars will be coming home
but I’ll resend them in the new year too!
Reading folders will not be coming home this
week, as I want to make sure I have all my books returned back to me before the
new year!
I’ll
be sending home a little update on the kiddo’s letter/sound/sight word progress
and a math assessment update too.
There
will also be coming home a little Christmas packet to practice things at home,
whenever your little one needs a change from all the Holiday buzz.
Be on the lookout in
the Cadillac News for our letters to Santa, within the week!
Congratulations Essian for being our
December Student of the Month!!!
