When do the red Parent Communication folders need to be signed?
The Yellow folders need to be signed each Tuesday for "Take Home
Tuesdays" (graded papers). Parents will initial by the
appropriate week. The folders will be sent home each night
and returned the next day. The right hand side of the folder is
for parent-teacher communications: special permission slips,
notes, etc. The pocket on the left-hand side is for things that
should be "left" at home; such as: graded papers, etc.
What do I do if my child misses a day of school?
If your child is absent please send a signed and dated note
explaining the absence (even if you called the school on the day
the child was absent.) When notes are not sent, your child will
receive an unexcused absence.Students should also check with the
teacher for any assignments that were missed.
How can I get in contact with Mrs. Lisa?
You can reach Mrs. Lisa at school by phone at 364-3401 after
2:50, or leave a message and I can return your call. I also
encourage you to email me. I check my email daily. My email
address is: whitwortha@k12tn.net or email from this website as
well.
What do I do if my child's transportation is different for that day?
You must complete a "Change of Destination" form.
Why are the basic multiplication facts so important in 4th grade?
As students enter the fourth grade, just about every
"new" adventure we encounter in math will involve
multiplication. Students will be multiplying
in word problems, graphing, ratios & probability, fractions,
measurement, geometry, and more! Plus, in order to learn
division, we must first master multiplication. Students should
work on the the facts DAILY until they are completely mastered.
