Dear Parents/ Guardians:

Thank you for supporting your children by attending our "Bring Your Parents To School Day". For those of you who were unable to make it, our parents were treated to fantastic performances by "Dr. Martin Luther King Jr." as our very own "Talented Tubman Tigers"! We'd also like to thank all the dads, grandpas, brothers, uncles, cousins and friends that escorted our young ladies to the "Daddy-Daughter Dance". Everyone looked fantastic, the music was wonderful and the "enchanted evening" was enjoyed by one and all!

The Illinois Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) will be administered to all third, fourth, fifth and sixth grade students during the weeks of March 1^st and 8th. Your support is critical! We have been preparing our students for these tests throughout the year and are confident that they will do their best. Please make certain that your children are in school and ON TIME everyday of those weeks, and that they get a good night's sleep rest each evening. A letter with additional information regarding the testing has already been sent home. If you still have questions, feel free to call our office during school hours.

I can hardly believe it with all the snow outside, but third quarter is coming to an end and spring is just around the corner. We begin our spring break on Friday April 2^nd. Even though our state tests will be over before this, we will still be in full study mode when we return. We must continue to prepare our children for their transitions into the next grade level. We will also be hosting an amazing NASA Night! Watch for more information regarding this "stellar happening".

 

Respectfully,

Mrs. Kathie McHenry
