Gifted Eligbility Meeting

Questions about the gifted eligibility process? We have the answers!

Our annual Gifted Eligibility Meeting will be held on October 3rd at 8:30am in the Learning Commons.

This meeting would be most applicable to parents of students in 1st, 3rd and 5th grades who are not currently enrolled in the Target program and have questions about the upcoming testing process.

East Cobber Parade!

Did you know Mrs. Parsons is Teacher of the Year!?! She will be riding in the East Cobber Parade on Saturday September 15th from 9-12! I know she would love to see some of her current and former Target students cheering her on! Please come if you can!

Dear Parents,

    We've had another successful week in Target!

     1st graders have continued their study of Amelia Earhart. We have discussed her childhood and what life in America was like when Amelia was growing up. Next week, we'll be creating a timeline of her life and important events in American history.

      2nd graders have been studying ancient Egypt with Audrey Aims. Our papyrus is dry and ready for Hieroglyphics! We'll be taking a field trip in November to see the artwork we are studying in person! Be on the lookout for a field trip permission form coming soon.

     3rd grade had a visit from Kid Chess to help kick off our Chess unit. The students who did not know how to play got an intro lesson while more advanced students competed against the coaches!

      4th graders dream vacations were derailed! Now how will they survive in the wilderness with only their clothes, a few bottles of water and a tin of crackers?!? We can't wait to see their divergent thinking next week!

      5th graders are diving deeper into the Ignite unit! We have continued studying empathy and global issues. This week, the students created news reports about major world issues. We are really looking forward to seeing their world-changing ideas take shape!

      Thanks for your support,
                Mrs. Sanders and Mrs. Parsons
