Clear, consistent and frequent communication between home and school is important to ensure a successful first grade year for your child. I believe in an open line of dialogue, sharing successes and areas of concerns in real time rather than waiting for district scheduled Parent-Teacher conferences. Throughout the school year, I will contact a family as needed to discuss your child's progress, or ask for your input to best meet your child's academic and/or social-emotional needs. Weekly communication will be sent home as a classroom newsletter which can be accessed on Parent Square, my teacher website, as well as a paper copy in your child's folder. Families are encouraged to contact me at any time with questions or concerns. Listed below are ways to get in touch with me throughout the year:
By Phone: (315) 629-1100, ask to speak to Mrs. Morris. Please note: If a call is placed while I am teaching students, a message will be taken by the office so that I can respond during non-instruction time.
By Email: meredithmorris@ircsd.org
In the Parent Square app: Send a message directly to me using this district app
I am available to respond to messages between the hours of 8:30 AM- 4:00 PM Monday-Friday on school days. Please note: I will do my best to answer parent messages throughout the school day, but will do so when I am not instructing students. Any message sent before or after school hours, during weekends, or on school vacation days may be answered on the next scheduled school day. I look forward to our partnership together this year!
