Spring News | Print |
     The fourth graders have been working hard to prepare themselves for the New York State exams which will be on April 16-18 for ELA and on April 24-26 for Math. I am very proud of their efforts to do their best. I encourage parents to reinforce a positive outlook toward the test, trying not to be over-anxious, yet letting the children do the best that they can on the exam.

October Newsletter | Print |
     Our first full month of school is completed and I am pleased to write that the class is adjusting nicely to our rules and routines of this new school year. We welcome our new classmates, Kristina, Giorgio and Lauren to SFA, as well as our old friends and classmates. I am also happy to write that the fourth graders have acclimated nicely to the "switching" of classes and they feel "grown-up" knowing they are responsible for their books and assignments for Science class. We are enjoying a chuckle or two in the morning as we start each day with a "joke of the day" and it brings a smile to the morning.

4th Grade Summer Letter | Print |

Dear Future 4th Graders:

     As the end of 3rd grade approaches, I would like to wish you a wonderful summer. I hope that you will enjoy time with your family and friends, have some fun vacations, and relax and have a good time.

     It will be a very long time before you return to school and I would not like you to forget all the fantastic things that you learned in 3rd grade. As part of your summer required work, you will need to complete the Summer Bridge Activities book that your parents have purchased for you. It is a great book to help you keep your skills sharp so that you are prepared for September. You can do a little each day, especially on those boring, rainy summer "I have nothing to do" days.
