September 4, 2015

Thanks to all of the parents who came to Back to School Night last night!  Let me know if you have any questions about any of the information.  A few reminders:

- Letter Homework will go home every other Friday for the beginning of the year.  Please work with your child a little bit each night and then send in completed homework the following Friday.
- All About Me Bags should be sent in by Tuesday(if you haven't done so yet).  We are sharing a few each day to get to know our classmates!
- Saxon Math practice will go home on Mondays (Tuesday next week with the holiday).  No need to send those back in to be checked!
- Please send a snack every day except Fridays because we will be cooking.
- I will send out 2 signups through Volunteer Spot.  One is for materials for our science experiments.  The other is for our cooking supplies each week.  You will get a reminder email when your supplies are due.  Thank you for your donations!
- Picture Retakes will be October 9th.
- No School on Monday!  Enjoy your day off!
