It was nice to see the family members that were able to attend Back to School Night this past week.  All hand outs were sent home the next day for those who couldn’t make it.  Please read through all of the information about our curriculum, academic subject matter, and classroom policies.  Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns. 

I am looking for 1-2 class parents.  Fourth grade events are not too elaborate.  We have a few celebrations throughout the year and class parents usually coordinate the treats that families provide.  Please contact me via email, [email protected], if you are interested in volunteering.
