HELP PARENTS! We still need a few parents to watch our classes this Friday from 8:30-9:00. You may volunteer to help with another homebase class. The students will be reading, in the media center, or in the computer lab. You will just need to monitor. It's important for us to have time to specifically talk about how to help different groups of students. We want all of the students to master skills and have a great sixth grade experience. If you could possibly help out with this Friday, please email a teacher. Thank You!
