Thank You!  Thank you to the parents who covered our classes this morning. We still need a few parents to help out on Friday mornings from 8:30-9:00.  The teachers will have everything ready for you.  Little, if any, teaching is involved.  It's mostly taking attendance, lunch count, and supervising as students are working on their assignment.  During this time, teachers are collaborating to assess student needs by analyzing testing data, and then modifying the curriculum to meet those specific needs.  If you are available, this is a GREAT way to be involved in sixth grade with your student.
