General Information and Policies
Attendance
If your child is sick or will be absent for any reason, please call the office to leave a message and/or send in an email or note as to the dates of the absence and the reason. Appointments
In the event that you need to make an appointment for your child, it is preferable if you make the appointment during non instructional time. If you could let me know in advance (same day is ok), it would be appreciated. Bathroom Breaks
There are multiple opportunities for bathroom breaks throughout the day. Students can go to the bathroom at arrival and dismissal time. They can go to the bathroom on the way to and returning from specials, recess, and lunch. Additionally we also take a whole class break mid-morning. Birthdays
Please let me know in advance if you will be sending in birthday treats. Treats can be sent in in the morning with your child. Birthday treats must be store bought. It is preferable if they are individual treats (cookies, cupcakes, doughnuts) that do not require cutting. Treats will be eaten either at snack time or at recess. Lastly, please refrain from having your child pass out party invitation during school hours (unless everyone in the class in invited). Thank you :) |
Field Trips
Snack
Snack is given daily either in the morning or afternoon (students vote). We do community snack to make it easier for parents and also so all students have snack every day. Please be sure to sign up to send in snack. No juice please. Website
The class website is used for students and parents alike. Students use the site to access websites for specific learning content. Your child has permission to go to any site that is under the student section. There are numerous movies, online books, games and activities that complement and supplement third grade learning objectives. |
