ARRIVAL/DISMISSAL Our school day is 8:40-3:30. It is important not to drop your child off too early because our School-Wide Soft Start begins at 8:25 and there is no adult supervision outside. If you arrive after the bell rings, be sure to have your child check in with the attendance staff at the office before coming to the classroom. Students are directed at the end of the day to leave from the same doors they enter through in the morning. Fourth Grade will enter and exit the building through the side door which faces Venneford Ranch Road. Be sure that you and your child identify a regular meeting spot outside of the school.
SNACKS Please send in healthy snacks that can be eaten while your child is working - fruit, cut veggies, bars, etc. Please do not send candy or soda.
WATER BOTTLES Please send a filled water bottle with your child every day. We get thirsty and staying in class is important to our learning process. Water fountains are closed in the building but there will be water filling stations.
BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS We love to celebrate/recognize birthdays! Birthday treats are welcome!
EXPECTATIONS In our classroom, your child will participate in a variety of learning activities in a variety of ways. To ensure that these activities take place in an environment conducive to learning, my expectations for students include that they care about their work and actively participate in the learning process, care about and respect others (at play as well as at work), follow directions, make safe choices, and organize themselves, their time, and their materials for success.
