Month of March

March is a busy month at Bancroft.  Here are some of our upcoming events...


All 5th graders are completing state mandated physical education testing.  This week we are running the mile and reporting our times. Boys should be able to run 1 mile in under 11 minutes and 30 seconds. Girls should be able to run 1 mile in under 12 minutes.


Next week students will complete the rest of the PE testing with curl ups (like sit-ups), push ups, the trunk lift, and the sit-and-reach all modeled below. They can be practicing these exercises at home.









 
 
2nd trimester report cards are done and will be sent home Friday, March 7.  Students have been working hard the last couple months and their efforts will be rewarded!
 
 
Achievement Awards will be held on Friday, March 21 at 10:00 in the morning in the auditorium. I will call parents to let you know if your child is receiving an award.
 
 
Wednesday, March 12 is our class field trip to the Helix Water District where we will learn hands on about the concepts we have been studying in science. 
 
 
 
Spring pictures will be taken Wednesday, March 19 at 10:00.
