1-3-13 Daily Update

Parents,

Happy 2013, everyone!  

AR.  Most students did a great job reading over the break.  Nearly all of the students had an AR test to take when they arrived this morning. Thank you for continuing to encourage this positive habit each night at home.  We are in the home stretch of the quarter on January 17th.  Most students have already blown by their quarterly reading goals for AR.  There are still a few students who will need to finish strong to earn the pizza party reward this quarter.  Congrats to these awesome readers who have already met this goal!
