MATH MARATHON IS THREE WEEKS AWAY
The 2nd Annual MRES Math Marathon will take place on Friday, April 2. Each grade level and classroom will have an assigned time to go into the MPR and participate in the Math Marathon. This is the last big FUNdraiser of the year. We thought that an educational fundraiser turned into a FUNdraiser would provide a unique opportunity for our students to learn, and to help raise funds for school and classroom needs. PTA will match up to $7000 in funds raised. Pledge sheets will be in the e-Packet soon.

LIBRARY IS OPEN AGAIN
Now that the Book Fair has ended our library will once again be back up and running. Thanks to everyone for making the Book Fair such a great experience for our students.

PEPP INFORMATION NIGHT IS THIS THURSDAY AT PAINTED ROCK ELEM
A PEPP (Poway Extended Primary Program) Parent Information Night will be held March 18 at 6:30 p.m. at Painted Rock Elementary. PEPP is a developmental program designed primarily for our younger kindergarten students, born between June 1st and December 2nd, and students with individual needs who would benefit from two years in a Kindergarten class. Many children entering Kindergarten at a younger age benefit from being given additional time to develop the self-confidence and readiness skills necessary for academic success. PEPP is not intended as a remedial or special services program, but rather a developmentally appropriate first year of kindergarten, preparing students for a smooth transition to a traditional kindergarten classroom the following year.
