Home Phone Numbers and Addresses If your phone number or address changes during the year, please notify the school. We need current information to keep in touch with you and contact you in case of an emergency.
Communication Folder Important papers, which need to be signed and returned as soon as possible, will come home in a red communication folder. Please return the papers in the same folder so that it can be used all year. The red folder should alert you to the urgent response that is needed.
Backpacks Your child needs to bring a backpack or school bag to school each day. Notes, papers, and homework are often sent home. Papers are less likely to be lost when small hands don’t have to carry them. It helps to keep a folder in the backpack to carry the papers that are coming to or from school. This keeps them from being wadded up at the bottom of the bag.
Homework Homework will be assigned on a weekly basis. Assignments will be sent home on Tuesdays and be due the following Monday. Homework will not be the same for every student. It will be assigned to meet the student’s present level of learning and will be used for reinforcement or enrichment purposes. Assessment will be done early in the year to determine each student’s academic needs.
