Staff News
· Mrs. Parks attended two meetings with local superintendents.
· We began our MONTCAS testing this week, with 3rd - 8th graders taking the three sections of math.
· 1st News finished a unit on the Winter Olympics! They had fun keeping track of the number of medals the US won. We had the most with 37!! They also looked at pictures of each sport to become more familiar with the sports we have never seen before! The first grade will now be starting a unit on the Iditarod which begins on Saturday, March 6th. We will be following the Montana mushers and also the top ten places on a daily basis. We will pick one rookie to track throughout the race too.
· 4th News: We are continuing to learn our states and capitals. Up next is the midwest.
· 6th History: Doing a research/mapping project about the Silk Road of Ancient China.
· 8th History: Beginning to study Lewis and Clark. We are looking forward to bringing in a guest speaker or two and some really awesome projects.

A Good Start
Did you know that breakfast is the most important meal of your child’s day? It provides the nutrients and energy he/she needs to concentrate in school. Research even shows that kids who eat breakfast get better grades, pay more attention in class and behave better. Help your youngster begin his/her day on the right food.
Make Time
Set the alarm to allow 10-15 unhurried minutes for breakfast. Suggest several healthy breakfast items and let your child choose. Tip: If your youngster doesn’t like to make decisions first thing in the morning, give him breakfast choices the night before.
