Our goal is to develop a love of writing in all of our students.
CATCH UP CLUB

recess and it will not be considered late or incomplete
If a child chooses not to attend catch up club – the assignment will be LATE and a hw notice will be sent home to inform the parents of the late/missing work

learning activities (which will be aligned with the common core standards for each unit)
