I am usually in there for about 30-45 minutes after the school day is over. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, concerns, or comments.

What do I do if my child misses school?

If your child is absent or sick, please call the main office and inform them. I will have an absent folder waiting for your child when they arrive back at school. Inside this folder will include all their assignments and homework that they have missed. Your student will then have 3 days to complete his/her work and return. If there are any questions, please don’t hesitate to email me.

How can parents/guardians get involved within the classroom?

I strongly suggest parent involvement! Every week, there will be a homework assignment that I encourage you to help your child with, if needed. Each month, I will send home a newsletter that will have a list of volunteer opportunities that parents/guardians participate in.

 

Can I bring special treats for my child's birthday?

Of course! We love to celebrate each and every student. Please, bring store-bought treats only and consider the allergy list sent to home at the beginning of school!
