Folder
Students receive a parent-teacher communication folder. Folder needs to be checked and brought to school daily.
Names/Numbers
For safety reasons, your child must be able to tell her/his first and last name (no nickname!).
If possible, it would be beneficial if your child knows parent's first and last name and one phone number.
Students need to quickly memorize carpool and/or bus number.
Parent-Teacher Conferences
Per CMS, one mandatory parent-teacher conference is held at the end of quarter 1.
Additional conferences will be held per parent request or if a concern arises.
Teacher Assistants
Our German K teacher assistant are students from the "Paedagogische Hochschule Ludwigsburg", Germany.
The German assistants usually are not familiar with the American school system, nor with being in classrooms. They will be learning by doing and by being mentored by teachers. Assistants bring/pick- up students from specials/cafeteria, they supervise students n the cafeteria and at recess, and they supervise centers and teach small groups/individual students.
Toys
Please do not have your child bring toys to school.
