Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s),
Welcome to the new school year! I am very pleased to inform you that I will be your child’s teacher this year. I want to take this time to thank you for allowing me this great opportunity to work with your child.
Please take time to read and discuss this letter with your child. Please also have your son/daughter check his/her Google email. I will be sending the class a welcome email.
Attendance
Students are strongly discouraged from missing class. Students explore and discover important concepts in class. Absences interfere with the comprehension and progress necessary to successfully complete the course. I will follow the established school wide rules for classroom attendance and tardiness.
If your student will be absent or will need to leave class early, please contact me via email. In addition, please contact your home school/school of origin’s front office.
ZOOM
Please have your son/daughter use the following to log into our Zoom class meeting:

Materials
Students are expected to have:
•Spiral Notebook
•Lined paper
•Calculator (for math/science)
•Pencil/pen
•Markers/crayons/colored pencils
**Notebooks should be well organized according to the specifications found on the notebook checklist.
AN ORGANIZED NOTEBOOK IS A SIGNIFICANT AND ESSENTIAL TOOL FOR SUCCESS!!
Daily Assignments (Class work/Home Learning)
Assignments will be assigned, checked and reviewed. It is a student's responsibility to complete assignments on time and to make corrections on missed problems. Students are expected to take notes EVERYDAY and keep them in the appropriate section of their notebook.
Grading Policy
Students will have a variety of graded assignments. Students will have classwork, independent assignments, quizzes and tests. Parents and students should check Q/Canvas regularly to monitor student progress.
Students are encouraged to ask questions, engage in class discussions, and see me with any concerns or questions. Parents should not hesitate to contact me via text at (805) 380-7576 or via e-mail cdunn@conejousd.org or through his/her Google Learn Account at cdunn@learn.conejousd.net at
I look forward to a successful year! J
