3rd Grade!
Welcome to Third Grade!
Hi Third Grade Families,
Welcome to the 2023-2024 School year! This is my 13th year here at St. Charles and I am looking forward to another excellent year! I am originally from New York and moved here in 2010 after finishing my Master's Degree in New York in Special Education. I have my undergraduate degree in Childhood Education.
I look forward to meeting everyone and having a wonderful school year!
Mrs. Hurtado

Dear Families,
I hope everyone had a great weekend. Thank you to those of you who donated supplies that we were running low on. We should be all set through the end of the year!
Information for the third grade Oratorical Fair will be coming home this week. It will take place on Tuesday, May 21st at 8:15 in the auditorium. All are welcome!
On Friday we will have our weekly spelling test on compound words and a Science test on chapter 6 - Properties of Matter (pgs. 194- 230 in text books). Students will have vocabulary cards, and the science chapter review completed by today.
