What are the class rules?
We don't have rules in our class because we have decided that we are a class that cares. C.A.R.E.S stands for cooperation, assertivenss, responsibility, empathy and self control. We spent a lot of time at the beginning of the school year talking about what these things mean to us and how they should look in the classroom. The students are doing a great job with our CARES policy.Back to Top

Will there be homework every night?
Your child will be expected to read 20+ minutes every night. They will have other homework as well, but it will vary acccording to what we are doing in class. I try not to assign homework over the weekend unless we are involved in a big project.Back to Top
