Weekly Update - May 15

Good Evening Wynbrooke Parents

I want to personally thank our 5th Grade Team and other Support Staff who traveled with our students to Orlando, Florida last week. In addition to learning a great deal, the students had an amazing time with their teachers and their peers. Thanks parents for entrusting them to us! Kudos to the Wynbrooke Team for going beyond the call of duty to ensure the trip was educational, fun and most importantly safe. Thanks also to the parents who traveled with our group. Your assistance was a HUGE help!

For the next two weeks, we will continue with our last administration of MAP assessment.

We also ask that you take time to reinforce our expectations for positive behavior by reminding him/her that school is still in session. Our goal is to keep students engaged in educational tasks for the remainder of the school year so continue to hold your child accountable for homework, projects, etc. Daily conversations with your child about making appropriate choices, using good self-control and remaining focused on learning will be greatly appreciated.
