March has arrived…and it’s coming in like a LION: Biting cold, wind and 
snow. We are hoping it goes out like a lamb…spring like, calm and a taste of warm temperatures.
Did you know that this piece of folklore is connected to astronomy — position of two constellations in the night sky? In early March, Leo the Lion is crossing the meridian. As March ends, Aries (the RAM) moves into the dominant position — about the time spring lambs are born and green grass is appearing…hopefully!
Parent/Teacher Conferences are Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. A great deal of time goes into completing the report cards and preparing for these 15 minute meetings. I will be announcing the end times to help keep everyone on schedule.
If you have a 5th grader, they will be taking a standardized math test called the ITBS. We also have JET’s PIZZA NIGHT and wrap up the week with POPCORN FRIDAY!
