Homework/Important Reminders: Friday, December 18

Fifth grade, I am thoroughly overwhelmed by your generosity and kindness! You are the BEST!!! I wish you and your families a wonderful Christmas and a relaxing holiday. See you next year!

This trimester, as part of our Christian Service, we will be asking our students to collect gently used items that we will then be donating to children in a village in Sri Lanka. Please look for used items to donate. Because of storage space, we are asking that you keep your "collections" at home until later in the trimester.
Possible items to donate: Small backpacks, toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, small towels, tennis balls, small stuffed animals, small toys, pencils, erasers, pencil sharpeners, small rulers, colored pencils, crayons, construction paper, shoes, socks, dresses, skirts, blouses, pants, shirts, undergarments, flip flops, sandals, umbrellas, raincoats, water bottles

The St. Mel Website will be closed to any families that have not registered for the website. If you need to access homework, go to the Quia page directly at http://www.quia.com/pages/jingraffia

Parents, please remember that you are required to send in a note to me after your child has been absent.

EDLINE INFORMATION
We hope you and your child have been able to successfully access Edline. It is meant to not only give you easy access to your child's grades, but to be more "green" and save paper. Because all grades are posted on Edline now, we will not be sending home individual progress reports for each student. However, when a student's grade falls to a C- or lower, we will send home a progress report. This also applies if a behavior or work habit grade falls to an NI (Needs Improvement). Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.
