Arrival/Dismissal

Students can arrive at school no earlier than 7:00am.  Students will come directly to the classroom to unpack, use the restroom, go to the cafeteria to get breakfast if needed, and complete their morning work/select a morning stem bucket. School will dismiss each day at 2:10 pm.

Absences

If your child misses school for any reason, you will need to send an excuse note the day he/she returns to school.

Breakfast:

Breakfast is served daily in the cafeteria from 7:20-7:35.  Students may go to breakfast after coming to the classroom and turning in their homework folder.  If your child will be going to breakfast, please be sure they arrive at 7:20 so they have ample time to eat and return to class to complete morning work.  Breakfast stops being served at 7:35.

Homework

• Optional homework sheets will be sent home, from time to time.  These are "at home" practices and do not need to be returned to school.  Please be sure that you are reading to or with your child for at least 20 minutes, each night. 

• Homework Folder:  Your child will have a homework folder that they will bring home every day. This folder will have their homework and any important information.  I will label the inside pockets Leave Home and Bring Back.  Everything that is placed on the side that says “leave home”, please review and keep.  Everything that is placed in the side “bring back”, please complete and return to school.
