Keep cheering your children on at home to do their best.
Rules are ALWAYS important. Please emphasize to your child the importance of following school and classroom rules. We must have a safe and productive learning environment.
Send in a written excuse when your child has been absent.
Send in a note with bus changes or pick-up changes.
Send in a snack daily
Send the folder to school each day and check the folder each night.
Read with your child 20 minutes nightly. Kindergarten is such an important time in building a foundation in reading. Any extra practice your child receives is very beneficial. As well as practicing the key concepts we are covering in math. We have websites your child can use at home listed under the links tab.
Please make sure your child is at school by 8:10. We would like for all to be on time so they do not miss any of our reading instruction.
