Hi Everyone,
The 101st Day was a blast! And the kids did such an amazing job on their shirts! I was so proud and they were too. Our Valentine's Day exchange is coming up on Thursday, please have each student bring in non-edible Valentine's to share with their class. Take Home Reading Folders will also start back next week now that all testing is complete. DRA info and MAP score will go home together just as soon as I get the go-ahead from the district, but I will be sure to keep you posted. -The front office wanted us to make sure you guys remind your student in the morning if they will have a change in dismissal. They have seen a big jump in the number of phone calls with parents saying their child isn't aware of the change in dismissal. -Principal Phelps wanted us to let everyone know that school-wide there will be NO FOOD VALENTINES allowed. -Next week is the last week for Neighbors in Need(We have donated the most so far. We still need combs and brushes)5th grade Student Council are working on a Service Project called Neighbors in Need. What they would like is for each grade level to send in some personal care items so that they can create bags to hand out to Austin's Homeless. I would really love it if everyone would participate and try to bring in a few items to help. When I was a child my Mom's Aunt owned and ran a Homeless Shelter in downtown Houston. I can remember being a small child and going out and feeding the homeless, I know those memories left an imprint on my life and helped make me who I am. I would love for the kids to get the chance to positively impact someone less fortunate than them. What they are asking for 1st grade to bring is; Toothbrushes, toothpaste, combs, brushes, and soap. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Attendance: I just want to remind everyone that school starts at 7:40 am. If your child comes to school after that time they will be counted tardy. With attendance, a tardy and an absence are counted the same. Our class has had a huge increase in daily tardies. When a student is tardy it not only effects them because we usually have already started class by the time they come in, but it also affects the class as a whole because it's a distraction. Note for the Nurse: Reminder-Since many of our children have life-threatening food allergies, we ask that you do not share food or treats with other students at school. ~ Nurse Sansom Winter is finally here and the weather has changed. Please be sure to send your child with a coat every day, we will go outside unless it's raining. We as teachers appreciate all the help you as parents give us, if you would like to help our classroom please feel free to take a look at our Amazon Class Wish List.
