Your agenda Planner: Fill out your information in your planner Look at the different sections Must go with you everywhere except bathroom, lunch and recess Will fill out homework in each classroom. If no homework, write None! No homework on Fridays = GOAL Parents must sign at bottom every day. Will be checked during TEAM. Homework will be posted on the EPIC House Weebly

Lockers: Freshly painted, don’t they look nice and clean! No signs on the outside. Sorry. Locker clean out will be on Fridays of every week. Find a system that works for you for organizing things then stick with it and keep it that way.

Turning in forms and money: Hang on to paperwork/notes and teacher will collect

Attendance and tardiness If you are going to be absent or are leaving early: have parent write a note, then show it to me and I will send you down to the office for a pass (TEAM time) If you are late getting to school: Stop in the office to get a pass Make up homework: Each teacher will have a place in the room for extra worksheets. It is your responsibility to take care of any missing work. You will be expected to make up all missed work and will get 2 days to do it for each 1 day missed
