We will now be using Edsby to post information about what we are learning in class and to share student work.  Parent log-ins for Edsby will be coming soon, however, in the meantime, I ask that you have your child log in for you and show you what we have been working on!  I am very excited about the possibilities offered by Edsby to help keep you informed about your child's progress! 

​On our Edsby page, you will find the daily agenda items, as well as pictures and descriptions of our classroom activities in various subjects.  You will soon be able to view your own child's work, as well as rubrics!

We have been reading our an Uber service in Pittsburg that is beginning to use self-driving cars as part of its service.  We did some research about the pros and cons of the use of self-driving cars and are wondering if other people would use this service. Please take our poll to help us collect some data!
