**If I do not have your email address, please forward it to me so that I can notify you with any grade below a 73 your child may earn. If not, please remember to check his or her assignment book daily as I will post grades there. It is the student's responsibility to bring all papers home for you to review. |

Please note that www.studyisland.com is an internet site that your child can access from home to help study and prepare for the state tests in the spring. They can use the same name and password they use at school to access the program from home, too! |
