January 11th:

Important: If there is a change to your child's transportation home then we  ask you to please send an email at least 24 hours in advance or give us a  handwritten note the day of.  We understand that last minute things come up.  If that occurs then please call the school to alert them of the change in transportation.  We are getting too many last minute emails.  Please keep in mind that we are teaching all afternoon and do not have time to check our emails.  If we do not receive communication about the change then we are obligated to send your child home via their regular means of transportation.

Scholastic Reading Inventory (SRI) will be given on January 13th and 14th.  Please make sure all students are here, on time and ready for testing on those days.

School Spirit Wear is this Friday.  Students may dress in Imagine Andrews shirt and uniform bottoms.

No school Monday January 18th in observance of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Scholastic Book orders are due Friday January 22nd.  Please enter the online code CA26Z if you are in Mrs.  Hull's class and code  P99XW     if you are in Mrs. Cummings' class.
For Mrs. Hull's homeroom there is a few Scholastic magazines that have several books on famous African Americans.  Hint, Hint... Our next project will be a biographical project on a famous African American.  You certainly do not need to buy a book but it is a possible resource.

Mrs. Hull's Class: A "Bit of Grit"   projects went home on Friday and are due on Friday, January 15th.  Please make sure that you detach the bottom part of the project paper and sign it to acknowledge that all parents have seen the project paper and are aware of the due date.

Mrs. Cummings Class: 100th Day of School Project information is going home today.  It is due on February 1st.

Great job to all the students who turned in the Character Book Reports for Mrs. Hull's class.  Most of you did a phenomenal job and I really enjoyed hearing about each character.  I have graded some and hung them on the bulletin board and they have received several compliments.  I should have the rest graded and hung up this week.  Keep up the good work!

January 7th:

Imagine Andrews Polo Shirt Day is tomorrow.

We have several students showing up each day without a complete uniform.  Please make sure that all students have ties, tucked in shirts and ALL black shoes.  The shoes cannot have any other color on them.

SRI (Scholastic Reading Inventory) testing will begin next week.  It will take place over two days.  I will let you know the days asap.  Please ensure that your child comes to school on time on testing days because if the test has already started then they will not be allowed to enter the testing room and will have to take a make-up.

Parent Volunteer:  Mrs. Hull needs a parent to come in tomorrow or Monday sometime to help put together the students daily editing books.  It will involve copying and putting together the books in folders.  If I have any kind parents willing to help then please send me an email.  karenhull0926@yahoo.com
