A message from Ms. Remillard:
The month of March kicked off with our Read Across America Literacy Spirit Week to celebrate Dr. Seuss and his famous books! March will also bring our 100th day of school celebration, our monthly PBIS Assembly and special Level 4 / Green Earned Time activity! George Washington School and Questar III is also dedicated to keep all of our students and families healthy and safe. Please keep checking our Questar II website for any updates regarding the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19).”
Annual reviews are taking place. This yearly meeting allows for you and the home school district to plan with the school team for next year. Please reach out to your child’s teacher with any questions or concerns. At the end of the March students in grades 3-6 will be taking the NYS English Language Arts exams. The parent letter as well as New York State Exam fact sheet will provide you with information about these assessments. Please be sure your child has a good night’s rest and a hearty breakfast to ensure their best effort! We appreciate all your support!
