Procedures
Birthdays
When we celebrate birthdays in class your child is more than welcome to bring in a treat to celebrate with the class. Due to allergies at school, please do not bring food or candy items as a birthday treat. As another option, your child can bring in pencils, stickers, erasers, etc. to share with his/her classmates. Summer birthdays can be celebrated on your child's half birthday or toward the end of the school year. If your child has a summer birthday, please let me know what day they want to celebrate so that I can make sure their day at school is special.
Friday Folders
The Friday folder will be used to send home any flyers, information from the school, and some of your child's work. They will go home on Fridays and should be returned on Monday. Please take all papers out and either keep them at home or fill out the necessary information to be returned to school.
Independent Study
If your child will be absent for five or more consecutive school days, you may request an Independent Study Contract. Please contact the office staff and let them know the dates your child will be absent. They will have you fill out all of the necessary paperwork. Please let me know well in advance of your child's absence so that I can prepare the work to be completed during the time of the absence. The work will be due on the day your child returns to school.
