Other: Extra Help Day!

I will be available for extra help on Wednesday afternoons. If I feel that your child needs to stay for a particular subject or topic I will send home a request form for you to sign. If you would like to request extra help, please call, email, or write me and I will send home a permission slip with the scheduled Wednesday on the form. Thank you!

Parents- Please check over your child's nightly assignments.

If you have any questions about the work, please feel free to contact me. Thank you for all of your help and support. These are the nightly assignments. Please remember to check your child's agenda each night for the homework. At times, homework will be modified to reinforce the daily lessons. I have explained to the children that they are responsible for writing down their homework and knowing what is due each day.
