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 - May 26

Happy Friday!

Sorry for the "no posts" this week - I was away cheering on our Track and Field athletes.

Speaking of Track and Field, congratulations to all of the athletes who competed in the East Central District Track and Field Championship over the previous few days.  Our 18 athletes captured 30 top 10 finishes!
