Here’s your Weekly News for August 16-22
1. Where are we?
Blue cycle. Over the next two weeks we will be getting everyone caught up and preparing for testing! Blue stripe shows that you do not need assistance to complete your testing requirements. It also means that you demonstrated that you are prepared to accept the responsibility of your next belt rank. So parents, if you don’t think your child has demonstrated that behavior that we all want, let me know. If you want to know how you can help your child out at home, just ask.
2. When are we testing?
Our next Color Belt Test will be held for Friday, September 4th.

3. Important changes:
This will be the last week that we will hold open day classes. Starting next Monday, August 24th we will implement the final schedule change that we will take into this school year. I have monitored class sizes and attendance over the past three months and have decided that the following schedule will be best for us moving forward. We will continue to follow all safety guidelines that we have implemented and make necessary changes as needed.
