Hello 6B Parents and Students,

All students completed their Fall MAP Growth Testing today, yay! The next time they have to take it is in the Winter (January).

Immunization Requirements – There are two immunizations required by the state for 6th graders: T-Dap and the Meningitis vaccine. This is not optional.  Please make your appointments as soon as possible to get these immunizations completed and then send in the required documentation to the school, attention to the school nurse.  The children cannot remain in school without these immunizations.

Monday, September 30th: 6B, as in the rest of the students in Grades 5-8, will be doing MAP Growth testing all day. Please pack them a good snack and a book to read. Make sure your children’s Chromebooks are fully charged and that all system updates have been done. I also advise they go on the below link to check that they are able to go on the NWEA website. If there’s any issues, please tell them to let me know. NWEA student login page: https://test.mapnwea.org/

Tomorrow, Tuesday, September 17th, is Back to School Night. It starts at 7:00 pm in the Gym. This is strictly adults only so please make the necessary arrangements. The SHS Mega 50/50 Raffle will also be drawn that night. After the assembly in the Gym with Mrs. Durocher, parents of students in Grades 5-8 will proceed to the Cafeteria for a brief meeting with all Junior High teachers. Don’t worry, it’ll be a short meeting, to give parents with other children in the lower grades enough time to visit with their other children’s homeroom class.

Friday is HSA Pizza Day. Those who would like to order need to send in their forms on or before Wednesday, September 18th. The HSA Pizza Order Form can be found in the Thursday Folder.
