Parent Communication
I believe that communication between teacher and parents is crucial throughout the school year in order to best benefit students' success. Throughout the school year, please expect communication from me in the form of e-mails, telephone calls, weekly newsletters, conferences, and my website. If you ever have any questions, please don't hesitate to email me at lmcmurray@greenville.k12.sc.us or call me at 355-2220. To ensure the quickest response, I ask that you e-mail me.
Attendance Policy
In order for an absence to be excused, each note that you send in with your child MUST contain the date, teacher name, student's first & last name, and a parent signature.
All absences require a note regardless of the excuse.
Please also fill out the BVES Absence Note located on my website's home page.
Changes in Transportation
If you wish to change your child's transportation for a particular day, please send in a written note. If no written note is received, your child will be sent home by his/her usual method of transportation.
If you wish to change your child's transportation day-of, you must call the front office.
