Hip! Hip! Hooray! The achievement test is over! The children did a fantastic job on their yearly achievement test. I am so proud of all of them. Now we will get back to our every day schedule. This week will be another busy week. We will be going to the Discovery Science Museum in Murfreesboro on Wednesday. Parents are invited to go with us. If you are planning on attending the field trip please let me know as soon as possible. You may pay for the field trip when you arrive at the museum. We will leave the school around 8:15 and return around 1:00. All children will need to bring a sack lunch and a drink to take on the field trip. Your child will need to wear jeans and an Ezell-Harding t-shirt.
On Friday the children will participate in Ezell-Harding''s annual field day. It would be great if your child would also bring a sack luck for field day. Your child will be given a field day t-shirt to wear on Friday. Information will be sent home this week from Mr. Riley about field day later.
