Parents:

The Sentence scramble is a pretty tough challenge for your new 2nd grader, but I plan to give the kids the long weekend to finish the 10 sentences!   Hint: Try the sentence scramble on spelling city to help you solve the answers.....

About The Movie

In this powerful story – inspired by true events – of  parenthood, friendship, hope and courage, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Viola Davis portray determined mothers who will stop at nothing to transform their children’s failing inner city school.  Facing a powerful and entrenched bureaucracy and a system mired in traditional thinking, they risk everything to make a difference in the education and future of their children.

Welcome to Mr. Fierros 2nd Grade Blog



I hope that you have enjoyed your summer break as much as I have!

Several news flashes:

We have a new principal: Maribel Rodriquez.

Cynthia Cardenas  Counselor
Romeo Herrera   Counselor
Please come by and introduce yourselves to our new staff and make them feel 'Mission Welcomed!'

Uniform Color Change

     Last year's polo shirt color of burnt orange will now be changed to royal blue   .

The latest news that I have received is that orange will be used as a trim and orange shirts will be the "spirit color" on Fridays.  Please call 633-2546 for more information.  I do believe as of this writing  that school shirts will be available for sale at the school...

School Supply Supplemental

     First of all parents please note that I do request a several extra things to be added to this years list:

1. 2 sets of earphones ( buy them at the Dollar Tree ) because they are not real  sturdy, when one breaks your child can use the other.  The more expensive earphones don't seem to really be much better in quality than the Dollar store kind

2.  Please note that this year I am asking for a two dollar donation so I can enroll your child in Spelling City.

This program more than proved itself with last year's students and I am anxious to get your child familiar with the program as soon as possible.  Check out Spellingcity.com
