Good afternoon! It is hard to believe winter break is so close! The last day to take AR quizzes is Wednesday, Dec. 20, so continue to have your child READ, READ, READ! Students will be able to bring their Chromebook home, this week, possibly tomorrow. A letter or message about home use will also be sent home. In short it says…
Mary Castle will be letting 5th and 6th students take home their Chromebook Monday through Wednesdaynight ONLY, when there is an assignment to be completed. The chargers will stay at school. All Chromebooks MUST come back to school the following day, as we use them in class, and there are no extra Chromebooks for students to use.
On a side note, some students are putting stickers on their Chromebooks, and writing on them. Please discourage your child from doing this. This device needs to last them for 4 years.
Thank you,
Mrs. Buhler
A note from Mr. Davis
This is the time of the year that many of us take for granted. We over-stuff ourselves with delicious foods at family gatherings, not even thinking that there are many people out there that don't know where their next meal is going to come from. Many of those people are kids right in our school. If you are able to donate, I would really appreciate it - but even more so, the child who is receiving the back sack would appreciate it. They need our help right now, more than ever. We are about to be off of school for two weeks. Many of these kids' main meals are ones that they eat at school. Please consider helping make someone's holiday brighter by donating. If you are interested, please email me back so that we can get the ball rolling for our students. Thank you and have a great day!

Hopefully - We will be starting a project on a holiday in December. Students will research, write an essay, and put together a power point to be presented in class to teach others about this holiday.
