Spring is Upon Us!!!!

Two more days till Spring Break, HOORAY!!!  Where has the year gone?  It has flown by so quickly.  I wanted to remind everyone of a few things before we go off to break.

Last chance to order!  Order forms and $20 due Friday, April 1^st.

Sweets and Swing

Free evening of jazz and desserts.  The East Cobb Middle School and Wheeler High School Jazz Ensemble will perform on Tuesday, April 26^th from 7:00 pm till 8:30 pm in the East Cobb Middle School Cafeteria.

CRCT Testing begins Tuesday, April 12^th – Monday, April 18^th

Please make it a priority to be at school every day.  The test will begin promptly at 8:00. Incentives are given to the students for each day everyone is on time for school.  Please see to it that your child gets a good night’s sleep, a hearty breakfast, and arrives to school on time.   I am confident that our class is going to do well on the test.  They have worked hard and I am proud of all the kids :) Thank you for your support!

 We are still in need of notebook paper and jolly ranchers.  Thank you to the students that brought in paper and jolly ranchers a few weeks ago.

As always, if you have any questions please feel free to contact me.  Have a great Spring Break and I will see you refreshed and ready to go April 11th.

Welcome to March Madness!!!!

First of all I would like to thank my students and parents for the overwhelming thoughts of gratitude and the sweet treats I have received during Teacher Appreciation week.  It has been my honor to teach and work with each and every student this year.  I consider myself very lucky to have been so blessed to work and get to know each one of them.  Also, thank you to all the PTA, families, and Partners in Education who have donated their time and resources to make this a wonderful week.  Your generosity has made a difference in our lives as teachers and made us feel wanted and appreciated for what we do.

March has been a busy month at Eastvalley!  We have 2 weeks before Spring Break!  Mark your calendar with all these dates:
