Maquoketa Families,
We will have a two hour delay today, Friday, March 22nd. The Maquoketa area seems to be in a pocket of a more dense snow than some of the areas around us. Thank You for your understanding and patience.
Cardinal teachers and students are piloting a new reading curriculum. Students in first grade were using magic to make long vowel sounds.
MHS Seniors- your pictures are due to Mrs. Edwards by March 1. If they are not in by this time, you will not be included in the yearbook or the slideshow. A traditional head and shoulder shot is needed for the paper (looking straight at the camera with no hat) and one of choice for the yearbook. The yearbook picture will also be used on the slideshow. Photos must come from the source it was taken and cannot be a screenshot of any kind. No watermarked photography will be accepted. Finally, baby pictures are also due for the slideshow at the same time. These can be brought in for scanning if needed. Please send all files as a jpg; do not send photos as a pdf. See Mrs. Edwards in room 110 if you have questions.
Hello Cardinal and Briggs Elementary Families,
Next week we will celebrate Read Across America Week and Dr. Seuss's birthday with some fun reading activities and dress-up days. Please help us to celebrate and join in the fun!
