Parent/Teacher Communication ****

This will serve as our parent/teacher communication log. This
will be for notes between us and you. Please stress to your child that this
paper is ONLY for the teacher and parent to write in. Check this
section daily and we will do the same. Please leave these notes
in the binder so that we can look back and remember any communications that we
have had. Initial all notes that you have read and we will do
the same. That way we know that all notes have been read, even when no
response is needed.

Snack & School Calendar
|
Your child will receive a new snack calendar once a month- this
will help you remember when your child is suppose to bring in snack. You may
bring only items that are on the approved list due to the
fact that we have a severe allergy this year. Drink can be 100% juice or milk.
School Calendar- This will help keep you informed of days off.
