Parents/Guardians,

I'm sure you all have heard but I did have the baby on May 6th!!  Declan James Thomas was born at 3:55am and was 6 pounds 3 ounces and 19 1/2 inches long. Everyone is doing very well and I am getting adjusted to having three kids in the house. Needless to say it is VERY busy!!

I will still be updating schoolnotes until the end of the year.  Grades on HAC will be updated as well. I am just getting to all of my e-mail this week so if you haven't heard back from me yet you will.  The review for DCAS is VERY IMPORTANT!!  Please stress to your children to review the standards every night.  This, along with the review quizzes and packets, will help them to prepare for the science DCAS next week.  They are not able to re-take this test so it is important that they do their best which I know they will!!  Please e-mail me with any questions or concerns you might have.  Mrs. Anthony will be in until the end of the year and you can reach her by phone at school as well.   

Have a great week!

Mrs. Thomas
