Hot Lunch Order Info
Here is the information on how to order hot lunch through the My School Bucks site.
Ths site can be found by going to the fsd157c.org website then scroll down to Online Payments and then find My School Bucks. you can order from there. I believe they also have a phone app you can use.

Weekly Math Schedule & Work
Everyday Monday - Thursday there will be Math homework. Please bring the book back and forth each night.
Below is a link for parents for the Math Curriculum. Mrs. Averbeck has designed a Padlet or a "One Stop Shop" for all out math needs. She will guide you through what is included like manipulatives, videos and all practice and homework pages.
Zearn
Students need to continue to work on Zearn throughout the week. I would love for them to keep as close to the current lesson if they can.
Students should be able to log into their lap with their password on their laptop. The password should be pasted in their agenda notebook.
Reflex
The students use ClassLink on the laptop to log into most websites like reflex and Zearn.
