Summer Birthdays will be celebrated on a designated date Students are allowed to bring in a Birthday treat for the class. We have 25 students. It can be one treat and a 100% fruit juice or water.

Homework will be assigned almost everyday. Homework is an important part of the learning process. I will be checking each child’s homework daily. If he/she does not have it or it is not complete they will be staying in for recess to complete it. I will send home a missed assignment slip notifying you of this. I ask that you sign and return it to school the next day. Three or more missed assignments in one subject area will result in deduction in the final grade.
