E-Mail me at: victoria.garcia@aps.edu or on ClassTag 

Welcome back to school! I am so very excited that you will be joining me this year for 5th grade!! It is an exciting time- the end of your elementary career!

I am so excited to meet you and to work together this school year. We have a lot to do and I hope that we have fun along the way. 

Please sign up with ClassTag, as that will be the easiest way for you to reach me and to get the latest updates on what is happening at school. 

Homework Expectations

Students are expected to read for a minimum of 30 minutes at night. They may break that up into smaller chunks, if that works better for you and/or the student, as long as they read every night, Monday-Friday for a minimum of 30 minutes. 

There might be nights with some work, such as a project, so please check your student's agenda each day as they will be writing in it every morning.  Please check your student's agenda daily as the most up to date information on homework, projects, and class information is available. Students are expected to write in their agenda daily during the provided class time. 

Breakfast and Lunch

Both breakfast and lunch are FREE this year. Please have your student get to school on time to eat breakfast if they are not eating it at home. We do not have lunch until 1:00, so it is a long time they will go without eating. Students are welcome to bring a snack for recess (we have recess at 11:00). 


Field Trips

We will be attending field trips this year, in order to chaperone you will need to get in touch with the office. Please do this ASAP.
