I look forward to getting to know you and your child this year!!
Changes in Transportation- If you wish for your child's transportation to be changed for a particular day, please send in a written note with the correct date, teacher's name, student's first and last name, and parent signature. If there is no written note received then your child will go home via his/her usual method of transportation. All notes must have the following information: date, teacher's name, student's first and last name, and parent signature.
Early Dismissals- Please send a note in the morning if you plan to pick your child up early. Check in at the office to sign your child out and the office staff will call for your child to meet you there. There will be no early dismissals after 2:00 p.m. Your child must be present for at least 3.25 hours of instructional time to receive credit for the day.
Communication (Blue) Folders- Your child will have his/her communication folder in their backpack daily. Please use this folder for any notes for the teacher. You will receive your child's weekly work in their communication folder on Tuesdays, however the folder will go home daily and should be returned daily.
Homework- Your child is expected to read their reading group book daily, practice his/her addition and subtraction fact fluency with sums up to 10, and study spelling words. Homework will be assigned Monday through Thursday and collected on Fridays. A student will only be rewarded for turning in their homework but will never receive a consequence. That being said, having your child practice these important skills at home each night will make a huge difference in the progress they make this year.
