NTI Work
Parents and Students,
Here you will find our first 5 days of NTI work in case of snow days! Students should complete these activities when we are out of school for weather. Students will complete 1 day of activities for each day we are out of school. All work should be submitted online or returned the first day we are back. Each day includes activities for Reading, Writing, Social Studies and Math. If you have any questions, I can be reached by email during normal school hours at tabor.placido@jessamine.kyschools.us. Thank you so much,
Mrs. Placido
