STEM and BOOK FAIR

We have been working hard on our STEM Project to show you at STEM Quest Open
House on Tuesday evening. This come-and-go event will be from 3:30 until 6:30 P.M. I
hope that you will make plans to attend. Your children are very excited to show you
what they have made. We will also be having a Book Fair next week, and you and your
family will have the opportunity to shop there on Tuesday evening.

Re-enrollment Packets
Please remember to return your
childs re-enrollment by January 20,
to be sure that your child has a place
reserved in second grade for next
year. As I reflect on the experience
that my daughter had at Harding
Academy, I can without a doubt tell
you that all of your sacrifice is worth
it. Harding is a place that not only
provides an excellent education, but
also a spiritual atmosphere where
students are nurtured and loved and
mentored.

Work Folders
Because this has been such
a short week and because
we have been working on
projects for STEM Quest,
Weekly Work Folders are
not being sent home today.
We will get back in our
regular routine next week.

Spelling and Memory

Verse
We will have a spelling test
and a memory verse test
next Friday. The new
spelling list and memory
verse are being sent home
in your childs folder today.
