What time do we eat lunch?
We eat lunch at 11:15. Please sign in at the office and meet us in the
lunchroom if you would like to eat lunch with your child.
An adult visitor lunch is $3.50.
--------------------------------------
How do I get in touch with you?
If there is an emergency during the day or if you unexpectly need someone
else to pick up your child, please call the office (775-0234).
To discuss your student's progress or other questions or concerns, my email
address is k.hays@cullmancats.net. You can also reach me at home at
739-9269.
--------------------------------------
How can I improve my student's reading skills?
Read to your student every night. As they progress as a reader, you may
want to take turns and let them read words they know in each sentence. Begin
the habit of helping your student to read to you every night. Help them
with difficult words they encounter and explain why we read the word that
way ('This is tricky--S and H together say shhhhh'). Playing games like "I
Spy" ('Oh, I see a sign with a letter S on it...') during car rides, trips
to the store, etc. will also help your student be more aware of the text in
their everyday environment.
--------------------------------------
Where do I pick up my child?
Our class waits under the canopy in front of the office to be picked up.
Please pull all the way up to the white line (or directly behind the car in
front of you) and a teacher will load your student. Please display our
class car tag in the bottom right corner of your windshield. If you walk up
to pick up your student, please come to the area where we load and make
verbal contact with me before leaving with your child. Thank you!

How can I volunteer if I work during the day?
There are many opportunities for parental involvement through at-home
projects. I appreciate your willingness to contribute to our class! There
are often projects that can be pre-cut or pre-assembled by parent volunteers
at home, and I welcome your help with these projects. Please send a note
letting me know the types of projects you would prefer helping with
(stapling books, cutting laminated materials, etc.). Also, there will be
numerous times during the year when you will be able to volunteer to send a
special snack item or holiday item (100's day snack or Halloween gourd
pumpkins, for example).
