We hope you all had a great weekend and got to get out and enjoy the SUNSHINE! We are ready for another jam packed (short) week of learning in 4th grade! Below are our reminders, announcements, and homework schedule for the week. As always, please reach out to your child's teacher if you have any questions!
Some General Reminders and Announcements:
No School 3/13 & 3/16: Friday is a Teacher Workday, and Monday is an RFF day - so students will not have school these two days. Enjoy the 4 day weekend!
4th Graders Need Poster Board! :) Students are wrapping up the first mini project for our fun March Madness author study unit this week! At this stage in the project, students will need plain white poster boards to re-create either their author, or their author's most famous character. Students will also need to cut an oval in their board (towards the top) to fit their face. Traditional poster board, or foam board will do just fine (*no tri-boards, please). Thank you!
American Red Cross Blood Drive 3/10: The 5th grade TAG students are hosting a Red Cross Blood Drive at NPES on Tuesday March 10 from 8:30 - 1:30. The drive is open to Fulton County employees and NPES parents (I.D. required). You can sign up now for a time to donate:

Cool fact: You can track where your blood goes and how/where it helps a person in need!
Important Upcoming Dates:
Please note that test dates are always considered tentative. If in the future the team decides that a test date needs to be changed (usually in the form of being pushed back if we feel that the students are not ready), we will communicate the change to you all. Until then, these dates represent our assessment plan.
- No upcoming assessments currently planned
