Week of November 19th

I am sure that all of you are aware by now that school is on as usual tomorrow.  I know that several students, families, and community members were affected by yesterday’s storms.  Please continue to keep those people in your thoughts as they go through this difficult time.

Just a reminder that this is Grandparent’s Week at CCIS.  Our class is scheduled for Grandparent’s Day on Wednesday from 11:15-11:45AM.  All grandparents or family members that attend need to bring in ID as they will check in when they arrive.

There is a student council meeting Wednesday morning at 7:30AM.

CCIS T-Shirts should be in this week for those students that ordered them.

The School Store will be open this Friday for business from 7:40-8:05AM.  This Friday is also the first CCIS Parent-Principal Coffee Talk.  This runs from 8:00-9:00AM and all parents are welcome to attend.


Here is this week's Spelling Review.

Week of November 4th

This Wednesday, November 6th, we have an 11:35AM early dismissal.  Please discuss with your child how he/she will be getting home if there are different arrangements.

Last week was the 5th and final week of Unit 2 in reading.  We will be taking our Unit 2 skills test on Wednesday.  We will spend time on Monday and Tuesday reviewing for the test.  This test will be the last major reading grade for the first trimester.  Since we are taking the Unit Skills test this week, there is no spelling test or spelling project this week.  The end of the first trimester is this Friday, November 8th.  Report cards will be mailed a week from Friday, November 15th.

We will be taking our Unit B Science test on Friday of this week.  We will play a review game on Thursday.  Students should spend 10-15 minutes each night this week studying that way they are ready for the review game as well.

Thursday night is Astronomy Night at CCIS from 6:45-8:00PM.  Parents and families are welcomed to attend.  There will be a few high-tech telescopes available to look through.  Hot chocolate will also be served.
