First Grade Field Trip to the NC State Fair
We loved seeing all of our Back to School Night attendees! It was a great time to gather and share all of the exciting things that happen in our first grade classrooms. We know that not everyone could attend the event in person, so we wanted to share the links for the first grade team's presentation slides IN ENGLISH and EN ESPANOL. The slides contain information that can be helpful all school year and have some embedded links to make it easier to find the information you need. We also sent home the packets handed out to any family who was not in attendance in Friday's BEACH folder. Please reach out to your child's classroom teacher with any questions or comments.
Was your student absent on Wednesday, August 13, 2025? The photographer didn't catch your child's best smile? No need to worry! PME will have a make-up picture day on Wednesday, September 24, 2025. Picture packages are available for purchase and order envelopes have already been sent home in BEACH folders. You can also purchase your child's photo online by going to strawbridge.net using code FM471285.
On Friday, August 22, 2025, your child brought home their Quarter 1 interim report cards. It is very early in the school year and the interim reflects your child’s quarter midpoint grades. We will be revisiting some of these same standards in the remainder of the quarter. This will allow your child additional practice and the opportunity to improve their grades. You also received a print out of your child's beginning-of-the-year mClass literacy assessment. We ask that you keep the printed interim report and any other information included, sign the envelope, and return the envelope to school. Be on the look-out for a sign up genius link to schedule a Parent-Teacher Conference to discuss your child's progress that will be sent out on Talking Points to all families.
If you need to reach out to a teacher, please communicate with us through the Talking Points app or you can email us directly at jchavis2@wcpss.net for Mrs. Chavis, kschiller@wcpss.net for Mrs. Schiller and kcarr4@wcpss.net for Ms. Carr.
