Greetings Mamie Agnes Jones Families!

I hope everyone enjoyed the cooler weather this weekend! We have a busy week ahead as we move into our first full week of the new quarter.  Report cards will be posted in your parent account tomorrow (Monday, October 19th) and hard copies will be sent home.  Please take a moment to review these with your child and reach out to their teacher if you would like to schedule a conference.

This Wednesday, October 21st, is Unity Day and students are invited to wear and share the color orange as a visible message of support, kindness, acceptance, and inclusion.

 

Our Title 1 Family Math Night is this Thursday, October 22nd.   Entry will be through the cafeteria door at 6:00 PM.  A light snack will be served during the opening presentation prior to heading out to participate in various math activities by grade level!  It will be a fun night for the whole family you won’t want to miss!  Kona Ice will be on here and all sales help to support our school.

 

Looking forward:
