Hello!

I just wanted to send a note to give you a few bits of information before open house. I’m looking forward to meeting your child and a new school year. I will send most notes through email this year. Other general Information can be found on my website:

*We will NOT have snack time this year. We have lunch at 11:30am. 

*Free breakfast will be served in the cafeteria as soon as kids arrive and put their bags in their lockers. Those who have eaten at home can go outside. If kids finish breakfast they will go outside before school starts, if time permits.

*Feel free to send a labeled water bottle with your child daily (with only water, please).

*On the first day of school, your child will get a purple take home folder. Please check your child's purple take home folder daily for important information.  If you need to send a note to school, please put it in this folder as I check them each morning.  Please remind your child to bring this folder back and forth daily.  

*If your child has a change in their regular afternoon routine, please send a note or call the office.  If you email transportation changes, please include Deanna Kulzer (dkulzer@district745.org) on your emails.

*Every Friday is school spirit day!  Dress in ‘Albany Huskies' clothes or purple & white.

*School pictures will be on September 25.

*Birthday Celebrations: Please have your child bring a favorite book from home for me to read to the class on the day of their birthday. No food treats can be served.

*Please reply to this email so I can ensure you received it. Most communication this year will be sent through email. 

Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Thanks!
