Dear Parents,

Welcome to the beginning of 1st Grade!  I hope that you had a restful and healthy summer.  This year will be very important for your child-emotionally, academically, and religiously.  My classroom policy is very simple: work hard, do your best and you will succeed.  I hope to make it a memorable year!

Each child must have 4 notebooks; these will be distributed in class. These books will be used throughout the year.  Your child will also need 4 or more sharpened pencils each day, a FABRIC pencil case only, 1 coloring book, and 1 box of 16 or 24 crayons; these can be purchased elsewhere.  The crayons must stay in school as they are used every day in class.  Please send in one roll of paper towel, all-purpose wipes and 2 boxes of tissues.

-Your child's name should be on all of his or her belongings, especially the outside of the lunchbox and in the sweater/sweatshirt.

-Parents are to check their child's take-home folder each night.

-Parents must sign all homework and test papers. Signed test papers are to be returned the next day.

-All workbooks and textbooks must be covered with clear contact paper  (I will be sending a few books home each night.  Please do not do any work in the books unless it has been assigned!)

-All money from home must be brought to school in an envelope labeled with your child's name, class, and contents. 

-Please remember, that it is very important for your child to do his or her homework every night!  A homework grade is given in each subject.

If at any time you have a concern or a question, feel free to contact me by messaging me on Classdojo, emailing me at [email protected] or simply sending in a note with your child.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation!
