WELCOME BACK!!!

We had a wonderful day!! Looking forward to many more days together.  The students were very helpful and studious.  We went over all the rules and expectations.  We went over a lot of material and we will be doing so all week.  Please encourage your child to ask questions if they are unsure of something.  Also if parents have questions please come to class.  Please go over the welcome packet and sign necessary papers.  Return papers in your child's homework folder.

This week we will be having a 2:30 dismissal beginning tomorrow.  If you are a new family or you have not completed Safe environment training Mrs.Blackburn will be having a meeting on Wednesday, August 10th at 6 pm.  If you are planning on working in the classroom or attending any field trips you must have completed the Safe Environment Training.  Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this matter.
