2nd Grade
Dear Parents,
Welcome to 2nd Grade! I am excited to have your child in my classroom this year! This is my 9th year at Beekman Charter School and my 15th year to teach in Morehouse Parish. I believe that students learn best when it is fun and interesting. We will do many activities, projects, & experiments this year.
I have included a letter that details my behavior expectations. These rules and expectations were reviewed in the classroom today. Please stress the importance of good behavior and review this information with your child.
I will be available to return phone calls during my planning period (11:00 - 11:50) or after school. If it is not an urgent matter, please send a note with your child or send me an email / remind message. I will try my best to return emails and phone calls in the same day, but there are times when the internet is down or we have a very busy day. If it is urgent, you may leave me a message in the school office at 318-281-1743.
If you are changing the way that your child is getting home for the day, I must have a note, or you may send me a message. The office is very busy in the afternoons, and a message may not get to your child before it is time to leave. To cut down on confusion, please email or send a remind message to me before calling the office. If you do not get a response from me, please call the office.
We will have a weekly conduct party to reward good behavior and hard work. Due to Covid, student are not allowed to bring snacks to share with the class. Instead, I will collect $4.00 per month to buy snacks. If you do not want to participate, students may bring their own snacks on Friday.
I am excited to have Mrs. Owens in the classroom with me again this year. This will be her 16th year as a Paraprofessional in Morehouse Parish. We look forward to working with you and your child this year. Thank you in advance for your help and support!
Thank you,
