Important Info for the Week:
Open House - Tuesday, March 7th:
This will be a student-led evening where your child will show off their work! If you would like to conference with your child's teacher and ask how they are doing, please reach out via email.
First Grade will have a performance at 4:30pm. Once the performance is over, classroom doors will open at 5:00pm. If you will not be watching the performance, please plan to arrive at 5:00pm.
Book Bags:
We will be gathering all guided reading books to return to our school's closet before we leave for spring break. Please make sure all the books are back in your child's book bag.
Math Weekend Challenge:
We will begin a district math assessment soon where our mathematicians will get to show off their counting! Your child will be asked to count by 1's to 100 starting from a random number (ex. start at 43 and count to 100). They will also be asked to count by 10s to 100 and count by 10s to 100 from a random decade (ex. start at 60 and count by 10s to 100). Practice, practice, practice!
Snack Days
Tuesdays and Thursdays are snack days in the cafeteria. Please talk with your child if you want them to purchase a snack and how many they are allowed to purchase.
Here is how you can add money to your child's lunch account.
