December Newsletter

As we begin the month of December, lets look at what is going on at CIS.

December 7-11: All 3rd graders will be assessed on their Oral Reading
Fluency during this week. Their goal is to read a total of 92
words per minute correctly and without errors. As of
12/01/09, 86% of our students were reading at or above
this level. It is very important that you let your children
read to you nightly. Thanks for all of your help.

December 9: All students 9 and under who have returned a signed
permission slip will receive the flu "mist" vaccine. However,
those students at risk with conditions such as asthma will
not be able to receive this vaccine. Hopefully, the state will
provide a second dose in January. Also, at that time we are
hoping that those children above 9 will receive the flu shot.

December 15: We will have a Title I Parental Involvement Night at 6:00.
Our 5th grade students will have the program, and we look
forward to seeing them perform.

December 17: This is the last day of school before Christmas Holidays. We
encourage all students to attend every day until the
Holidays begin.

January 6: We look forward to our students returning to school after the
Holidays. Report Cards will be sent home on this day.

I hope everyone has a very blessed and special Christmas.
