W. F. Morrison Newsletter, 9.10.13



  • Mr. Hawk, our P. E. teacher, asks all students to come to school with appropriate shoes for P. E.; no flip flops, dress shoes or any open-toed shoes
  • Please send your student with headphones (for small children) or ear buds to use in the computer lab.  They are REQUIRED for testing and the new reading and math curriculum activities.  Using personal headphones will also lessen the sharing of unwanted head bugs.

Please note the one-way pattern that traffic should follow in this area.  Also, traffic is prohibited in the school bus area when the buses are loading and unloading.

Curriculum
We are excited to let you know that our school is implementing new reading and math curriculums that align with Montana’s Core Common Standards.  The program selected for math is Go Math! published by  Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. The reading program adopted by the district is Reading Wonders published by McGraw-Hill.
Here’s to an exciting year of learning and growth!
