Thank you for recognizing the importance of being at school every day! WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH Every March, the country celebrates the accomplishments of women in American History. Even though these accomplishments go back a long way, most schools didn't start focusing on women pioneers and their achievements until recently. Today, most high schools and colleges offer classes in women's history and most schools teach kids about the many contributions women have made to our country. AN IRISH BLESSING FOR YOU: Wishing you a rainbow, For sunlight after showersMiles and miles of Irish smiles For golden happy hoursShamrocks at your doorway For luck and laughter too, And a host of friends that never ends Each day your whole life through! BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION Please continue to send in Box Tops to support the Science Program!!! FUTURE DATES TO REMEMBER: March 16th-27th: PARCC Testing March 11th: Market Day Orders Due DID YOU KNOW…? Reading aloud to children every day puts them almost a year ahead of children who do not receive daily read-alouds regardless of parental income, education level or cultural background. IRISH-AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH March is the month of the Irish! St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated on March 17th. Many people, Irish and non-Irish, celebrate by attending parades and wearing the color green. The shamrock is a symbol of luck.
