WELCOME!!!

Hello everyone,

Welcome to Mr. McDowell's classroom blog. I am very excited to have a classroom webpage and I hope that you will find it useful. The purpose of this blog is to provide a convenient (and reliable) communication link between students, parents, the school and Mr. McDowell. I invite you to check this blog on a daily basis as I will be posting valuable information about the classroom and the school - including daily homework assignments, important dates, classroom/school news, etc.

For your convenience, you can also sign-up to receive "daily updates" from this blog that automatically gets sent to your email every day there is a new posting. Simply type in your email address into the 'submit' box found on the right side of this blog.

More importantly, if you ever have any questions or concerns about your son/ daughter, please do not hesitate to contact me via phone, email, or this blog:

Classroom News - March 16

So the weather obviously didn't cooperate for us to enjoy tobogganing and snowshoeing!?!?  Students instead enjoyed archery for the Adventure Ed. class.

Another MC Knoll Book Fair is coming - Tuesday, March 22 and Wednesday, March 23.  We are looking for volunteers to help work this event.  Please review the newsletter that was sent home yesterday and return it...if you are interested in helping out!

As term 2 has officially ended, parent-teacher-student conferences will begin soon - Tuesday, March 22 and Wednesday, March 23 to be exact.  Specific interview information was sent home earlier this week with your son/daughter.  If the assigned time does not work, please contact the school ASAP!
