Hi families! 

Thank you for your attendance at our student-led conferences! Many of you asked how you can help support your child at home on their personal goals, especially in math. They must go through Clever to access IXL and enter @stjoebears.com after their login. Remember in IXL math, there are two areas they can specifically work on. "Test Prep" is where each student's NWEA goals have been entered. Diagnostic will cover missed skills and other math goals below and above the 4th-grade level they may need to work on. They can also access our text book to keep working on what we are doing in class. Here is a Link to get to the Lincoln Symballoo and a Screencast to explain directions.

Halloween Party: Our Halloween Party will be Tuesday October 31st, from 2:00-3:00. Parents are welcome to to join us, but must have a volunteer form completed to attend. 

(From Mrs. Knuth)

Costumes: Students can wear costumes to school. If there are masks or items that cover the hands, please plan to keep those in the backpack during class time and only wear them during the party and the parade. Additionally, please save any weapons or gore for the night of Halloween--we don't want to scare our littlest learners! We know this day will be exciting, but any help with eliminating distractions for learning time will be greatly appreciated.


Parade: We will have a school-wide parade on the 31st. If weather permits, families are welcome to come and watch the parade at 3:15 by standing outside the playground fence area. In the case of rain, the outside portion of the parade will be canceled.




Birthday Snacks: Students are allowed to bring in a treat for their birthday. However, we do have a peanut and red food dye allergy so please make sure the treats are peanut and red dye free, and send in food labels. Another alternative is sending in goodies such as pencils or stickers. There is no obligation to send in anything!

  Hi families!  Thank you to everyone who sent in snacks for our trip and necessities for our classroom!   Here are some reminders for our trip to Lansing tomorrow:  All students and chaperones meet us in the classroom at  7:15 AM. We will leave promptly at 7:30 AM.  Everyone needs to bring their own lunch and drink for the day.  Kids are allowed to bring one electronic device. Students may also want to bring a bag that they will be comfortable carrying around all day.  We will be walking all day, so wear comfortable shoes and dress for the weather. We will collect the kids' field trip t-shirts at the end of the day.  We should arrive back to the school around 5:00-5:15. Please pick your student up at the front of the school.  If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. We are looking forward to this memorable trip! We will begin M Step testing on Wednesday this week, and Tuesday next week. We will test ...
