How do I make transportation changes?

If you need to make a change in your child's transportation home from 
school, you must call the front office. They will then buzz our classroom 
and notify me.

What do I do if my child is absent?

Your child�s regular and prompt attendance at school is crucial to his / 
her success. If your child is consistently tardy, he / she is missing 
morning exercises that reinforce previous lessons and give extra practice. 
Some classwork can be made up at home. However, we do many learning 
activities as partner work or in a group situation. This is very difficult 
to make up at home. Please make getting to school on time a priority for you 
and your child except in the case of illness or an emergency. If your child 
misses a school day a missed assignements sheet will be sent home. Please 
send a doctor's excuse or note stating why your child was absent.

Can I send a treat for my child's birthday?

You are welcome to send a treat for your child's birthday (plan for 20 
students). Please send a note a day in advance so we can schedule time to 
enjoy the treats and celebrate.

What is iLEAP?

Third graders take the iLEAP test in April. This is a state wide test 
that includes Langugae Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies. Questions 
are multiple choice and constructed response. We will be working hard all 
year to prepare for this test. Your child will be ready! Please try not to 
pressure your child regarding the test. The more relaxed students are, the 
better they will perform. If you have any specific concerns, please let me 
know.

How can I contact Mrs. Hardee?

I check L.I.O.N. binders daily so the "Communication Log" is a great way to 
comunicate with me. You can also call the school office (892-0869) and leave 
me a message. I will call you back as soon as I possibly can. Your questions 
and comments are very important to me!

A homework agenda/contract will be sent home every Monday in the L.I.O.N.

How will I know what grades my child is making?

Each Wednesday your child will come home with a large envelope called "Cub 
Roar".  It will contain graded papers and any additional information from 
school.
