Students are expected to know the FIRST list by the end of the FIRST Quarter (September 29th), The SECOND list by the end of SECOND Quarter (December 22nd), and the third list by then end of Q3 (March 18th). Please keep practicing these, as your student will be assessed on all of them at the end of the second quarter.

IPads HAVE BEEN DISTRIBUTED to students!

Students WILL NOT be bringing these home unless there is to be an e-learning day or in preparation for inclement weather. This is dependent on the rules of your child's teacher.

All students are responsible for making sure their IPads are charged daily.

We are hoping to go on a couple of Field Trips this year!!

Please sign the Field Trip Permission slip to allow your child to attend. It is a one-time sign up that lets them go every time. If students do not have a signed permission slip, then they will NOT be allowed to attend the Field Trip.

Ask your teacher if you need another copy.

Please click on the volunteer form below and fill out the information and submit to a background check to be eligible to attend/chaperone a field trip.

YOU MUST HAVE A PASSED BACKGROUND CHECK ON FILE TO GO ON A FIELD TRIP WITH OUR STUDENTS! If you have any questions, please reach out to Mrs. Guthrie.

THIS IS NEW!

You ARE welcome to bring in an individually wrapped, nut free birthday treat when it's your child's birthday! Students will not be eating treats in the classroom, but rather in the lunchroom. We will still be celebrating and singing Happy Birthday in the classroom.

We use an app called PowerSchool to track students attendance and grades. PowerSchool will also let you know if your child has any missing assignments that need made up.

We use a behavior app called Live School to award points for positive behaviors and take points away for negative behaviors. Students can exchange those points at our Live School Store every other Friday for fun prizes and even parties!!

Please Join our Live School app so you can see how your child is doing!

Please let us know if you are having any trouble logging in
