What time do you go to lunch?

12:50 - 1:15 ~ You are always welcome to join us anytime.  Your child may 
invite classmates to eat with them, one guest per empty seat.  I always 
remind classmates that it is not polite to invite themselves to be a lunch 
guest.  Guests may only be invited by your child and they may only invite 
one guest per empty seat.  
Please do not allow the children to pull folding chairs up to the table.

Can I check out books from the public library for my child to take tests on?

Absolutely!  They might have a list of our tests and can help you select 
books in your child's Z.P.D. (level).  I can print a personalized list for 
your child to take with you to the library or you can check on their on-line 
card catalog www.nhclibrary.org (in the links section).  
Myrtle Grove library hours are M-W 9:00am-8:00pm & Th-Sa 9:00am-5:00pm

What can I read if I left my library books at school?

Anything!  Just read something for 30 min. Anything will do - magazines, 
comics, newspapers, books you have at home, the cereal box, the catfood bag, 
the directions to a game (then play the game), just to name a few 
possibilities.  This is only to be done in an EMERGENCY when library books 
have been left at school.  Library books are expected to come home and back 
to school everyday.

Can I still take an AR test on a book that I left at home?

If you are ready for the test and you remember the title, yes.  If you're 
not sure if you're ready, then it's best to wait.  If you don't remember the 
title and it's not written on your homework sheet, then you'll have to wait 
until the next day.
