Third Grade Conferences take place this week!
Hello Third Grade Families!
This week, your child will be leading you through our "student led" conferences. The conference schedule for your child was sent home two weeks ago. Also, 3B received an additional copy of the conference schedule inside their "Friday" folder. The purpose of having "student led" conferences, is to allow our families to experience the academic day of a third grader at S.F.X. It also allows parents to see, the purpose of behavioral expectations that foster positive organizational skills and positive decision making. We are looking forward to seeing you this week at our conferences.
The students will be released early this Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday due to conferences.
The dismissal time will be 12:25.

Please know, that Mrs. Ezell is now on her maternity leave and is tending to her sweet baby girl, Amelia Jo Ezell.
