4th Grade (I.C.R.) Class
Lafayette Estates Elementary, School #25
2023 - 2024
Welcome to 4th Grade at Lafayette Estates Elementary, School #25!
The 4th Grade I.C.R. Classroom, 2023 - 2024
What does this mean?
This is a fourth grade I.C.R. (In Class Resources) classroom. We teach Math, Language Arts, Science, Social Studies - NJ/US History & Geography, and Health subjects including Multiculturalism/Diversity/Technology and additional areas covered in the latest NJSLS (NJ Student Learning Standards) through the WTSD Curriculum.
There are at least two teacher's in an I.C.R. classroom: One (1) General Education Teacher (Mr. S.) and one Special Education Teacher (Ms. E. - please see her website on previous page.)
I am the General Education Teacher Mr. S. My e-mail is always on the previous page (right above this webpage link) with the rest of your child's teachers and/or instructors & therapists (if applicable.)
I'm listing the most important and pressing information first...more information will follow.
This is to provide your child, our students, and yourself with the safest transition in starting a new year, new grade, and/or new school.
Please keep in mind over 700+ students enter this elementary school in the A.M. and get released at 3:30 P.M.
IMPORTANT: We will be checking EVERYONE'S Picture Identification (ID) that is coming to school (on premises) to pick up the students with those listed in GENESIS. IF THE INFORMATION IS NOT UPDATED IN GENESIS, PLEASE DO SO IMMEDIATELY.
Also remember anyone NEW that is sent at the end of the day and/or ANYONE trying to enter the school will have to do the same ALL YEAR. Better that you know and be prepared.
Unsure?
Please contact the main office.
I look forward to seeing & meeting you and explaining all the details further for this school year at:
OPEN HOUSE
DATE: Tuesday, September 12, 2023
TIME: Grade 4 - 7PM to 8PM (Open to Families from 5:30PM to 8:30PM)
Please continue reading below till the end for additional important information and guidelines.
Thank you, Mr. S.
INTERNET SAFETY
STUDENT/CHILD SAFETY:
Anytime a student/child is online they should be supervised for their safety in general & as a minor and should adhere to all Woodbridge Township School District (WTSD) & Woodbridge Township Police Department (WTPD) guidelines, advisements, policies, procedures, & regulations provided by these institutions.
DIGITAL COMMUNICATIONS TO TEACHER/STAFF/SCHOOL:
All online/digital communications to myself/staff & school should be done from legal guardian(s)/parent(s) listed in GENESIS and their e-mails provided by them/yourself that are in GENESIS. (If you have not done so or need to update that information, please do so as soon as possible by providing that information to your child's school.) I, Mr. S., will be communicating online/digitally by using those e-mails only on GENESIS. I will NOT be using third party messages/messaging, texting, personal e-mail, etc. (Of course when you can't or for Emergencies please feel free to send me a written note and or call the main office.) For any communications you send to school & staff that I need to be aware of please feel free to CC me on all e-mails.
WHEN WRITING AN EMAIL:
Please state your full name, but only use your child's first and last initials. In addition when referencing them please use their initials or write "my child." I will always write to you from my work e-mail and will say your child. I like to tell parents/guardians this right away. Again this is for the safety of a minor/your child. I will need to check that e-mail in GENESIS before responding. While I will get back to you as soon as possible, if it is information that can't wait, please call the main office AND e-mail me/their teacher. We'd rather err on the side of caution when it comes to their welfare.
NOTE: ALL these measures are in place to protect the student's/your child's SAFETY, PRIVACY, RIGHTS, and PROTECTION in general as a minor as well as yours & your family.
I thank you in advance for your help in keeping your family and everyone SAFE in this digital age!
Mr. S.
