Welcome to Kindergarten!

I am looking forward to getting to know your children and you!

**Parents, go to Shutterfly.com to view our fiield day pictures!

*If your child is absent for any reason, please send a note to school.

*Students should be in the classroom by 8:05.  If not, please pick up an admission slip from the office.

*Please look through the Tuesday folder and return it the following day.

Your child will get a homework calendar at the beginning of each month. Please help them complete 4 activities each week and return the calendar (and any work they want to show me) at the end of the month.

 Check backpacks on a daily basis for tickets and classwork.    There is now a red "homework folder,"  parents should go over any papers that come home at the end of the day for reinforcement or completion.  Send the empty red folder back each day. This will mainly pertain to the Superkids (Language Arts) as Math, Science, & Social Studies are often hands on learning.

Also, check out snapfish.com for pics of your kiddos at field day.
