About our class and school!
School Vision
Homework Expectations
In 1st Grade, we know the importance of play and getting to be a kid.. Home time should be spent as a family: playing, cooking dinner, having conversations, exploring, and checking in on emotions, etc. Because of this, I only ask that you do these 2 items for homework each night:
1. Read at least 10 minutes per night
2. Practice sight words
Birthday Books
We love birthdays in 1st Grade, however with 21 kiddos, doing birthday treats is a lot. Due to allergies, time, and our school-wide Birthday Celebration Policy, we will celebrate with birthday books in our classroom instead!
Please donate a children's book to our birthday book box by September 1st. On your child's birthday, he/she will get to pick out a book from the birthday box and we will sing to him/her, read the book, and then everyone signs it. They get to keep it forever & they love it! Please do NOT send in desserts or treats for your child's birthday and save those for parties or celebrations at home! Thank you for understanding!

Volunteers
We love volunteers! I can use help with most things, whether it's running a small group, reading with kids, or office work like copying & laminating! Our door is always open and we are so eager to show you what we're learning! Here is a link to become an approved volunteer via DCSD!
