Welcome back to school. What an exciting start to our year! We started the first few days working on procedures, getting organized, and team building activities. We have loved getting to know our new students and look forward to a fantastic year together!
Thursday, August 28th
2 Sessions
5:30-6:00 and 6:00-6:30
- Please remind children to take good care of computers; carry with two hands, keep away from food, drinks, and little brothers or sisters. Each night we ask that you have a special place to charge the chromebooks and double check that they make it in your child's backpack in the morning. We will talk to the students about how it is their responsibility, but please help them for the first couple weeks.
***Please send in wired earbuds or headphones that plug into your child's chromebook. Label them with your child's name if possible.
The first week of 3rd grade was filled with excitement, smiles, and new beginnings! We spent time getting to know each other, learning classroom routines, and building a strong community.
