Week of January 4 - 8
Dear Parents,
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas with your children! It is time to
return to school and get back on a schedule. Our schedule for our first week
back will be a little different. Since this is a three day week, the first
grade teachers decided to give the Spelling test on Monday, January 11, to
allow a few more days for studying. Spelling and Vocabulary words are posted
under the homework link. Other events for the next few weeks are listed
below.
I look forward to seeing the children on Wednesday and hearing their
stories about how they spent their Christmas vacation!
I hope you have a great week.
Thanks,
Debbie Randolph

The grading scale on report cards for the first grade are as follows:
90 - 100 E (excelling)
80 - 89 S (Satisfactory)
70 - 79 N (Needs Improvement)(Additional at home practice is
recommended.)
60 or below U (Unsatisfactory) ( Additional at home practice
recommended.)
Letter and number reversals will be counted wrong after we return from fall
break. This will allow time for the children to practice the formation of all
letters and numbers. If your child has difficulty with reversals, please help
him/her make corrections on their school work when it comes home on a daily
basis.
