When is my child tardy?

The tardy bell rings at 8:00.  Each child should have already been to the 
locker, moved lunch clip, checked for Morning Work, put folder on his or her 
desk, and sat down when the bell rings ready to listen to the intercom for 
Morning Announcements from the Office.

Can we bring water bottles?

We do not bring water bottles because we have REAL books in our desk.  We 
will have no less than 3 restroom breaks but in general we have about 5 
opportunities to break.

Can my child keep a sweater in the locker?

Great idea--air conditioning gets cold sometimes.

Can I eat lunch with my child?

Having lunch with your child will be a special treat!  Be sure to sign in at 
the Office and get a visitor sticker.  Please remember the Food Service 
rules while in the building. Note: Siblings who visit should follow the same 
rules as all students in the cafeteria.

What do the grades mean?

Report cards have rankings not grades.  I grade most of our work according 
to the 100 point/assignment system.  The grade equivalent are as follows:
100--96   E  Excellent  
95--90    S+ Super            (or check plus)
89--85    S  Very Good        (or check)
84--80    S- Good             (or check)
79--70    N  Needs Improvement (or check minus)
60--0     U  Unsatisfactory     (sad face)

Can I walk my child to class in the morning?

The MISD has issued updated guidelines.  All adults who enter the building 
must go through the Office for an i.d. sticker before proceeding to any 
other location.  I apologize for any inconvenience this causes you.  We must 
remember that these kinds of things are done in the interest of safety of 
our children. I thank you so much for your cooperation and good will.

When will Library begin?

Library time is on the schedule now, beginning 9/10.  Our regular day is 
Thursday.  Please help your first grader remember to return books on the 
right day.  We teach this as part of the Conduct grade.
