Week of September 30th -October 4th Highlights: The Division II students have started to get ready for our yearly Drama Production.  Each student has been cast as an actor or placed in a group of their choice (Dance, Choir, Art, or Video Production).  Each Friday they will be working with their chosen groups to get ready for our December Production of “The Show Must Go On”. We have completed our Math Unit on Patterns and Algebra and have passed back the Unit Test.  Please send back the tests with a parent signature once you have reviewed it with your child.  We have started our new unit on Place Value and will be continuing to build on our Math knowledge of number within this unit.

Week of September 23rd - September 27th Highlights:  We braved the cold on Thursday and had an amazing field trip to the Foothills Athletic Park.  The kids participated in relay races, 300m and 60m races, long jump and ball throw.  On Friday, we had a wrap-up assembly and acknowledged the students who placed 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th in each event. On Friday, we showed our support for Terry Fox and ran in the rain, wind and snow. The students participated in an assembly before the run. If we reached our goal of $1400.00, then Mrs. Kruger will be dying her hair pink for Monday.  We will keep you posted on our final fundraising total. We have handed back both quizzes that were given during our math unit on patterns. Students were encouraged to take them and their JUMP Math book home to study and review over the weekend. On Monday, students will be given their final test on patterns and then we will be moving on to place value. In Social Studies, stu...
