Daily Schedule

4. Classroom Management
We provide bins outside the office for forgotten items such as lunches or other non-perishable items. If you leave something for your child, please send the teacher an to let her know that something has been left.
Your child’s folder with GRADED work will come home daily. In addition, your child will bring home a daily planner with assignments and behavior chart inside the planner. Please sign the behavior chart once a week. The take home folder and planner need to come back to school each day.

5. Homework
Homework is assigned by the teacher. Your child will write their homework assignments in their planners. Please check your child’s planner each night for any homework assignments. Please note we do not allow students to call home for homework.

6. Grading
You can monitor grades online by registering with Skyward. You will find your report cards there also.
We follow the district guidelines for grading. We will re-teach and retest a student who has failed a MAJOR test. They may re-test for a potential grade of a 70. Daily work and quiz scores will not be eligible for a higher grade change.

7. Birthdays & Snacks
If you choose to send in a treat for your child’s birthday, please also send in plates and/or napkins. We do not have these types of items on hand in the classroom. Please do not send in any treat that contains peanuts. Also, NO icing please (this especially includes cupcakes ). These treats can be dropped off at the office.
Alternatives to the traditional birthday treats are anything that is individually wrapped or a small item such as a sparkly pencil.
Snacks – Your child is welcome to bring a HEALTHY snack each day to class and a water bottle with a sport bottle top (label with their name). Please remember that snacks should be finger food and not require a utensil to eat.

8. Communication
s are a wonderful way to communicate with your teacher during the school day.
Please be aware that phone calls get sent to voic during the school day.
It may be best to contact the office with any emergencies. Any messages about change of dismissal after 2pm (or you have not had a reply from the teacher to confirm), please contact the office.

9. Planners
Every 3rd Grade student will be issued a planner. The cost of the planner and Scholastic Storyworks magazine is $13.00.
Storyworks is a multi-genre reading resource magazine that comes about once every month or two through the year.
Please send in a check made out to WES or cash in an envelope labeled with your child’s name on it.
The students will write in their planners everyday and the planner comes home each evening .
