Monday, November 12th Lower School students will have a Veteran's Day Chapel and have been invited to wear red, white, and blue. The girls may wear blue jeans.

ERB testing practice will take place this Monday and the girls will begin testing on Tuesday. No more than two tests are scheduled on a given day and there will be no homework this coming week. Good rest and a bite to eat in the morning is the best way you can prepare your daughter. The girls may bring in slippers or socks to wear on testing days for a little bit of extra comfort. Thank you for volunteering to send in snacks to cheer the girls on. They will be greatly appreciated.

Students are enjoying their Storybird Writing Lab. They are using strong adjectives and challenging vocabulary to create a story about fall.This site allows students to choose from a variety of incredible illustrations to serve as a background for their creations. Ask your daughter about her story.


The girls continue to show insight and development of the math concepts being taught. We are practicing daily in our journals on double digit multiplication, long division, and bar model word problems. This is giving students a good foundation and lots of practice using basic math facts. The more proficient the girls are with their basic facts, the easier it is for them to use them when working on more complex math concepts.

Students have completed their nonfiction book report study and you can find these colorful fact packed creations on the bulletin board outside the classroom.
