| Our classroom is NUT FREE due to severe allergies. Please make sure that
any snack you send into school contains no nuts or traces of nuts.
We have snack every afternoon. Please pack your child’s snack separately
from his/her lunch. We ask that you not send glass containers to school,
please. The teachers do not provide snack.
If your child chooses to buy lunch, buy from the school store, bring in
money for a special event, or bring in money for any other reason, money
MUST be sent to school in an envelope or wallet labeled with your child’s
name.
Please DO NOT send loose money to school with your child.
If your child would like to celebrate his/her birthday in school, please
send a simple treat (cookies, brownies, cupcakes, etc.) for the class to
share during snack time, along with napkins, to the office that morning.
Drinks are not necessary. As we do not have a birthday party, only celebrate
by sharing snack together; parents are not permitted to host their child’s
birthday party in school during school hours.
If your child will be handing out invitations in school, please make sure
that everyone in the class is invited. Invitations may not be handed out to
only a few children in school.
We encourage independence in first grade and are trying to build responsible
patterns in our students. Please encourage this at home as well by making
sure your child is responsible for his/her own schoolwork, backpack, etc. A
responsible student is a successful one!
Each week, your child will take home a Reading Record. Each child is asked
to read at least ten minutes every night, and record the books on this
paper. Please return the Reading Record on Friday. Ten minutes might not
seem like much, but it is an important part of making your child a reader!
Thank you for your cooperation!
