The stretchy rubber bands that the kids are wearing are starting to become a distraction. I will warn them once; the next time I will take it away. Please talk to your kids about this. Thanks.


Don't forget to read each night for 20 minutes.

Starting October 11, I will need 1 volunteer each day to come and help in our classroom: Mon, Tues, &Thurs, at 2:15. If you would like to come, please let me know. I have only had one volunteer contact me about helping, I still need at least 3 more.

Check your child's homework folder each night. There is generally something for them to work on. Remind them to turn it in when they get to school.
