Great First Day!

Post date: Aug 22, 2017 7:54:27 PM

Our first day of school was great. We met two new friends -- Isaac Lopez and Jose Rios -- who are new St. Linus Hawks this year. We celebrated Nick's birthday with delicious popsicles after lunch. We talked about the fun places we visited this summer and started a fun t-shirt activity.

Parents, if your 3rd grader needs to meet up with older siblings to walk home after school, we ask that they meet in the school library at dismissal. If you have a preschooler that needs to walk out with your 3rd grader, the preschool aide will bring them to our classroom at your request. If your 3rd grader will be going to extended day care after school on a regular basis, please let me know with a brief note. For those children who walk out with me at the end of the day, we meet in the Church parking lot.

3rd graders will be going to recess at 11:48 each day and eating at about 12:10. Please encourage a large, healthy breakfast because this is about an hour later than they ate last year and 3rd grade does not have morning snack time.

I hope your child's first day was a good one -- 3rd grade is going to be GROOT!
