Week of September 17, 2018

Monday is Day 6 of the schedule. We will have gym on Monday. Students should wear their gym clothes and sneakers to school.

There will be a band assembly on Monday. This assembly is to introduce a music program where students can take lessons on a particular instrument. Students will have the opportunity to take lessons after school. The lessons are held in the school building so students would be dismissed to the supervision of the band. Paperwork will go home about dates, times, and fees, etc.

As Mr. Arria asked, at the Back to School Night, please remember to read the Parent-Student Handbook. The handbook is on the Cheverus website. When on the website, find and click on the Admissions tab, a drop down menu will appear. Find and click on Parent-Student Handbook. After reading the handbook, remember to sign the contract and send it back to school. A hard copy of the contract went home with your child on Friday. Thank you.

It was very nice to meet those of you who came to Back to School Night. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to come and find out about the first grade expectations. I am looking forward to working with you and your children this year.

Please remember to email me so that I can add your name to my contact list. Thanks again.

Remember to fill out a C.O.R.I Form. These forms are in the office with Mrs. Richards. Thank you.

If anyone is able and would like to volunteer to help out with lunch duty please let us know. Thanks.

Homework
Homework is given as an extention of what is taught or has been taught during the school day. Please review your childs' homework with them and fix any mistakes with your child so that they understand their error. After homework is finished, it is a good idea to have a certain routine of putting it in the folder and backpack to have it prepared for the next day. This helps with less stress at putting it all together in the morning. Homework is due the following day. Bringing back the completed homework the next day helps promote good responsibiltiy. Thank you for your help with this matter. In addition to written homework, students should read to an adult every night. Please make time to read with your child nightly for at least 15 minutes. Thank you.

Mon. 9/10 Write spelling words 3x each in notebook.
