Frequently Asked Questions: This page contains answers to common questions of students and parents.
What do I do if my child is absent?
Please send in a note when your child returns to school.Back to Top
How is the classroom managed for behavior?
An individual behavior plan has been implemented for our classroom. Located on the back bulletin board, there are colored envelopes with various colored cards in them. (Please refer to the behavior code sheet for various meanings.) Each child has been assigned a number on their name tag located on their desk that corresponds with the same number envelope. This plan will be further discussed at our Parent Night. There is also a whole group incentive program. The children work together as a team to earn letters to my name or short phrase. When they earn all the letters, the class will vote what they would like from the classroom reward list which was created by them during the first week.Back to Top
