August 20-22
Hello B6 Families!
This first newsletter is a little longer than usual, thank you for taking the time to read it!
WELCOME BACK! I am very excited for the year ahead. As my married last name is hyphenated, you may see my maiden name (Knudsen) on my email and the school website. Your kiddos will refer to me as Mrs. Palmer :)
This year will provide new challenges and opportunities for growth in knowledge, responsibility, and experience. Your child's success in third grade is my main goal and this can be achieved by all of us (students, parents, teachers) working together and supporting each other while keeping communication open. All these variables blended together will help make this a successful year for your child!
ANNOUNCEMENTS
Parent Survey: Please take this short survey to help me get to know your child better!

Weekly Newsletter: At the start of each school week, please read my newsletter (found here on my website.) In my newsletter I will have information about what students will be learning in class, upcoming projects, due dates for assignments, tests, etc. Also, it will have reminders and school announcements. Please make it a priority to read the newsletter each week.
Communicator: Your child will be coming home soon with a communicator (planner). The communicator is where your child will write down their homework assignments and important reminders. It is the students' responsibility to copy exactly what I have written - no edited versions. Each day, please read the communicator together with your child, check off assignments completed, then sign the communicator to indicate homework completion.
Stay Connected: If you have any concerns, questions, or need to set up a conference, please email me. I am happy to help! My email address is mknudsen@pleasantvalleysd.org. I check my emails daily, however if you do not get a response within 24 hours, please email me again as sometimes it may go directly to SPAM.
Back-to-School Night: September 3rd will be our Back-to-School-Night. This evening will have very important information. I will be explaining in depth the curriculum, my procedures and expectations, school-to-home communication, grading and homework. Please save the date for this very important evening!
