General Sixth Grade News

Please replenish school supplies, especially glue sticks, scissors, and map pencils. Teachers do not have class sets of supplies, students are required to have their supplies with them at all times. Often we do cut and paste activities, waiting to borrow supplies from another student slows down the class progress.

Sixth grade is very fortunate to have two student teachers with us for March and April. Mrs. Gomez and Mrs. Salazar are from UTA and this is their second teaching assignment this semester. These ladies are very capable and have already won over the hearts of the students.

Sixth Grade Class T-shirts order form is coming home soon. This keepsake t-shirt will have a design on the front and the student signatures will be on the back. This shirt will be our uniform
