Dear Parents/Guardians,



The Adventure House sends home grade report sheets twice a month beginning on September 17th in an effort to keep parents/guardians and students fully aware of the academic progress that is occurring. Please pay close attention to the assignments that are listed as missing (mi) on the grade sheet. Additionally, on Thursday's, I will be hosting a Before School Science Club. The Before School Science Club will be held in my classroom (18A) from 8:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. Assignment to the club will be on a voluntary basis for the completion of a missing assignment. Furthermore, the Before School Science Program will guarantee students the opportunity to complete their work while receiving additional support.
