MontCas will continue this Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday! 

If you have a child that will be in kindergarten next fall PLEASE register them...or if you know of anyone that has a child that will be in kindergarten. 
Dear Bitterroot Families,

The demographics study done for the district as part of the facility planning process indicates a significant increase in Kindergarten through 3rd grade students coming to Bitterroot in the Fall of 2013. In order for us to plan classroom spaces and staffing we need to get a handle on the number of new students as soon as possible. You can help us by registering your incoming Kindergarten students now. All new registrations will be marked by Christy with date and time of registration just in case "first come, first served" becomes part of the classroom placement process.

Also, I will be grateful if you help us get the word out to families you know have Kindergartners starting but for some reason haven’t received this notice.

Gratefully,

John English
Principal,
Bitterroot School

We will be taking the MontCas test next week, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.  PLEASE make sure your child eats a healthy breakfast and gets a good night's sleep.  Also, please make sure your child is here on time as if the tests have started they will not be allowed into the classroom until the tests are finished.

We have been working on our multiplication and division facts...they are supposed to know their facts 0-9 by March 15 without using a chart to help them. :)

We will be going to the Alberta Bair on Monday, March 18 to see the Three Little Pigs.  Permission slips will be coming home early next week, please make sure they get returned.

Our classroom carnival will be Friday, April 5 so put that date on your calendar.
