Good afternoon Franklin Families,
Tomorrow students will be rewarded for their I-Ready Growth by having a Glow Dance Party. All students in K-5 will attend the dance. Students will want to wear colors that glow under black lights. The more students grew the more glow sticks they will have. For every 10% of growth they had on their mid-year benchmark they will get a glow stick. I-Ready parent reports and certificates will also be coming home tomorrow. If you have any questions about their parent reports, please contact your child's teacher.
Have a wonderful evening!
Just a friendly reminder we will have a PTO meeting in the cafeteria at 5:30 tomorrow, February 8.
