Say It Isn't So...MORE SNOW? NOOOOOO!

This past week culminated with presentations that the children did on biographies. We had Benjamin Franklin and Martin Luther King, Jr. present, as well as Britney Spears and Miranda Cosgrove. The students had a choice of five different projects to complete, which they did in grand style. Pictures coming sometime soon, I promise! I just have a five to ten page paper to write by Monday! Oops, better get busy!

Special News

Congratulations goes out to Elizabeth Smith for placing 2nd in Literature in the Cash Elementary Reflections contest. Elizabeth was interviewed today by the Kernersville News. I can't wait to read the article.

Emma Fagerburg's dad, Scott, came as a Mystery Reader today. This was a special time for Emma, since her dad will soon deploy to Iraq. Please keep the Fagerburg family and all of our soldiers in your thoughts!

George Knezevic, Blake Mitchell, Kyle Tedder, Layne Mushinski and Kayla Walter are finishing up the Upward Basketball season over the next few weeks. They will have a celebration the first weekend in March, where they will be given trophies for their participation. As the cheerleading coach for my daughter's team, I have enjoyed being able to watch so many of the kids play this season.

Did I mention that CJ Harris, the awesome WFU freshman basketball player, was in my third grade class many years ago at Cash? I am like a proud Mama Hen!

I will be posting pictures in the next few days!

Busy Week Ahead

Please remember to attend Curriculum Night at 6pm Tuesday to hear Gateway Information and classroom information. If you have specific questions you want answered, feel free to email them ahead of time, so I can have the information you need available. I have another meeting to attend at another school after ours is over, so I apologize if it seems that I am moving too fast. Curriculum Night is not intended to be a parent conference time, but I am always willing to meet with you at another time that is mutually convenient.

ENOUGH SNOW ALREADY!

While everyone was excitedly watching the news last week in anticipation for snow over the weekend, I do not believe anyone expected for our kids to actually go to school for a four and a half hour period in one week. Of course, now we get out later, and have less of a spring break to enjoy. Maybe it will rain during those days were are in school to make up at Spring Break, so that we won't be upset having to be indoors. Who knows...this is NC and March tends to bring some interesting weather around here. I just hope the groundhog got it wrong!

Needless to say, due to the lack of time in school this week, report cards will come home on Monday, February 8th. Let's hope this talk of wintery precip next Tuesday goes away very quickly!
