Week 34 Update and Schedule

It has been an incredibly busy week with the SAGE writing test.  I really appreciate the support from home with encouraging your students, helping them attend school and making sure they are eating and sleeping well.  The test was difficult but I couldn't be prouder of how hard the students tried, focused and wrote to the best of their ability.  Because this is the first year of the new test, results will be given in the fall.  Keep in mind that our SAGE Reading Test is April 15-16.  If you could make sure your child attends school on those days, that would be much appreciated.

The next week will be spent in Reading and Listening Comprehension exercises to help prepare students for the test.  Attendance is a must--many of these assignments and discussions will be difficult to make up so please, please make sure your student is in school.  I always enjoy hearing from parents, I can be reached at rachel.robins@washk12.org or 435-652-4742. 

Students: Relax this weekend--get out in our beautiful spring weather and enjoy time with your family and friends!
