Knights of the Multiplication Table

Hear ye, Hear ye! Announcing the Knights of the Multiplication Table! It's time for all 3rd grade students to start working hard to learn their multiplication facts so they can join the Royal Order of the Knights of the Multiplication Table! Our royal Mrs. Spaulding knights all students who have completed their multiplication facts through 10. These knighting ceremonies are held once a month starting in February and continue through June. Happy Multiplying!!

Our ceremonies are be held on Thursdays at 2:20 pm. The parents of those being knighted are invited to attend. Teachers will notify the student's parent or guardian. The next ceremony is Thursday, April 28.

Parent Input Forms
 
Staff have begun initial planning for the 2016-17 school year. Parents have an opportunity to share their input on the best educational setting for their child by completing a Parent Input Form. These forms can be picked up in the main office and must be returned by Friday, April 29, for the input to be considered for next year. The due date is firm since planning will start in May.
