We have had an amazing first week of school!! The children have done an excellent job listening and following directions. They have adjusted so well to our schedule and I know we are going to have a super year!! It has been a joy to get to know each sweet little personality!
Please watch for the letter telling about our small group conferences that we will be holding after Labor Day. The First Grade Team feels that this is the best way to explain to you how we do things in our classroom, what the expectations are, and give you a glimpse of what our day is like. We will also cover in detail the curriculum your children will be learning. This is an informal meeting that I hope will answer questions you may have or at least clarify some things for you.
Starting tomorrow, Nancy's Italian Ice will be offering Italian Ice for $1.00. This is a special treat and is only offered on Mondays. Please make sure to send in correct change in a labeled baggie or envelope. If you choose not to purchase Italian Ice please discuss this choice with your child so they are prepared when the Italian Ice is delivered to the classroom. The Italian Ice will be delivered during our snack time so you may not want to send a snack on Mondays if you are purchasing Italian Ice. A note went home on Friday detailing information about Italian Ice.
Thank you so much for the quick return on the required paperwork. Your quick response allows me to focus on instruction. A few things to remember:
- An excuse for any absence must be sent in within two days of returning back to school.
- Any change in mode of afternoon transportation must be in writing.{I will not take the word of your child.}
Upcoming events:
8/31 ~ Box Top collection day: send in any box tops/soup labels.
9/3 ~ No school in observance of Labor Day
9/11 ~ PTA General Membership Meeting at 6:00.
9/28 ~ Box Top collection day
