Dear Parents and Guardians,
Grades have been updated for this week, and you may notice some significant shifts in your child’s scores. If you see a change, it is most likely due to missing work from this week.
This was the first week that both paper and online assignments were included in the final weekly grade. Students were given ample time in class to complete these tasks, but during a recent class reflection, several admitted they could have used their time more effectively.
I want to reassure you that I believe in all of my students and their abilities. A shift in scores now does not mean it’s permanent—students have plenty of opportunities to improve and achieve success. Because this was our first week fully counting all assignments, I will be flexible with late work next week and will accept assignments from this week so students can catch up.
Please encourage your child to take advantage of this opportunity and to use class time wisely. If you have any questions or need clarification, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Ms. Blitzer or me starting next week—we are here to support you and your child.
Thank you for your partnership and support as we work together to help every student succeed.
Important Dates:
TBD
**For any changes in pickup plans, please contact the front office during the day or include the change in a message you send our way.**
Contact Information
Ms. Hansen- lhansen@sainthilaryschool.org
Ms. Blitzer: eblitzer@sainthilaryschool.org
Please include both of our emails on any communication so that we can each view your message and assist you or your child as needed. We work closely together and regularly share information, so including both of us helps keep communication clear and efficient.
I believe that a successful year begins with open communication between parents and teachers. If you would like to schedule a conference, they can be arranged in advance—typically after school, or occasionally before school. For emails, please allow at least 24 hours for a response. Fourth grade is a busy year, and it can be difficult to check emails throughout the day.
