A NOTE FROM MRS. DRAIN

     I am very proud of those who worked hard and got their first Milestone completed on time with all three books and three websites as required. Many people took the opportunity that they had over the Winter break to work on finding the resources needed and turned them in early. Thank you!
       
      It is important for us to teach the kids about using time wisely and working ahead. When you work ahead and run into a problem, it is easier to fix and frustration levels remain low. 

      As I prepare your child for middle school, I want to expose them to a higher expectation of organization and timeliness. Going forward, your child WILL be having multiple projects due around the same time and it is important that your child work ahead to turn in assignments early, so they won't feel overwhelmed and excuses for incomplete assignments won't be needed. 
      
      As always, I appreciate your support as I continue to expect more from your child as they begin their transition from elementary school to middle school.
