A few things we are doing to recognize the importance of this month… When you walk through our lobby, you will see the flags on display of Spanish Speaking countries! Research on famous Hispanic individuals will be on display on the bulletin board across from our clinic. Thank you to the wonderful Mrs. Murdock for leading this effort! Twice a week, students who exhibited excellent work ethic and research skills in Spanish, will be chosen to share their research on Heards Ferry Live!

We are SO excited and appreciative of our Eagle Alliance for providing this experience for our children! Thank you, EA! Greeting,
I just wanted to update everyone. The students received a study guide for our unit 4 test next week Wednesday. I have given the students the answers to some of the questions. My reason for doing this is to unsure they have the right answers, however, THEY are still responsible for WORKING out the problems, and explaning how they came up with the answer. We will go over the study guide on Friday, so please have them bring it back them, so we can answer any questions they may have. Again, the unit 4 assessment will be next Wednesday, Sept. 11. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns. Please make sure you send your child to school decked out in our team colors. We are the BLUE Team! We will have our FIRST Pep Rally of the year on Friday.
