Reminders
Any money sent to school should be in a sealed envelope with your child's name, teacher's name and the purpose for the money.
Please do not allow your child to bring toys, makeup, or other items from home that will cause a distraction to others or that may be stolen or lost. Toys and electronics are not allowed at school or on the school bus. These things will be collected. You will need to come to school and collect any items that are collected from a student.
Student attendance is extremely important! Many of the activities that we do each day cannot be replicated with a worksheet or textbook pages. Consequently, students with poor attendance tend to have difficulty completing assignments and understanding concepts. Also, please be aware, that our afternoon schedule is just as content-oriented as our morning schedule, and so, it is very important that your child remain in class for the full school day. Please try to schedule all appointments after 2:30 each day.

My Love and Logic Philosophy:
1. You can always expect me to treat you with fairness and respect.
2. You can always respectfully say, "I'm not sure that's fair."
3. Consequences will be given on an individual student basis.
4. You can always expect my best.
