You can track your child's progress using google classroom
Google classroom is a free online learning platform that helps teachers and students collborate and communicate. Teachers can create, manage assignments and grades, share resources and provide feedback. Students can track classwork, submit assignments, check grades, and interact with other students. Parents can sign up for email summaries with a student's upcoming or missing work.
During registration, there will be form to fill out with the names of the individuals who have your permission to check out or pick up your child. This form must signed by you and the individuals.

I send home assignments and material that we have covered in your child's classroom binder. The binder is listed and organized according to the month, day, and subject area. Students have one week to complete any missing assignment from that week.
As you may know, water-fountains have been taken out of schools due to Covid-19. I recommend parents packing a water bottle, lunch (if your child doesn't each school lunch), and learning materials.
Please notify our school's nurse and myself. I will get this in a physical document to have on record.
You can send an email directly to me @remonie.whitelow@smail.astate.edu, so that I can relay the message to your child. Another option is to email your child directly using Class Dojo. Your child can respond during scheduled computer time.
*Reminder
All messages sent through Class Dojo will be sent through me first to be approved. Once approved, your child will then get the message.
Students are graded based on participation. Also, grades are graded on the scale of 1, 2, 3, and 4. 1 being poor and 4 being excellent.
