Things to Know:

Somerset E-News: It has come to my attention that some of you are not receiving the Somerset E-News. For some reason, the E-News can default to the spam folder of an email address. This email is sent out every Friday afternoon and contains information about special events and things to know. You can find the latest E-News HERE. If you haven't been receiving it, check that spam folder! We are currently working on fixing this so it won't happen anymore.

Library Checkout: The amazing Sarah Garrett has found a way for students to check out books from the library safely! Please return library books after each weekend so your child can check out a new one on Tuesdays!

EPIC Class Code:

If your child is ready for new books, just shoot me an email and I will pack some up! Likewise, if you didn't receive these books and would like some, let me know.

Read Across America Month: Don't forget to track those pages! You can access the link to track your reading pages HERE or on your seesaw announcements page every Friday. Here is our calendar of events for the month of March:
