Thank you for taking the time to come in and explore the classroom with your kindergarten student today. It was so nice to meet all of you!
Some important things for you to know:
Drop off- in the mornings you will be able to come into the school to drop your child off at the door. The bell rings at 8:55 and the classroom door will open at that time. Please try to enter the school as close to that time as possible. We will not be having staggered entry like we did last year.
Pick Up- we will meet you outside at the far end of the sidewalk in front of the school building. Pick up time from tomorrow until September 17 will be 12 noon. Please try to be prompt- it can be anxiety-inducing for children to not see you there at the end of the day.
Supplies- small pillows, and gym shoes can make their way to school as early as tomorrow and will be stored in lockers (pillows on the top shelf, gym shoes on the bottom shelf).
Snacks only for this week- no lunches are needed this week, but please be sure to send water bottles and snacks for recess break. And on that note- please be aware that we CANNOT have BRAZIL NUTS in our classroom. Peanut butter and granola bars with other nuts in them are okay, but please be sure to keep Brazil nuts off the snack list.
Freshgrade- you should have received an invitation to view your child’s Freshgrade Portfolio. Freshgrade is an app that I use to send you photos of your child throughout the year and I have already posted at least 2 pictures of each child. Please let me know if you have any questions about this and I can try to walk you through things.
I am sure there is more information to pass on but I will leave this with you for now. Stay tuned this week, as I am sure there will be more for me to share with you.
See you tomorrow!
