Your child’s Tuesday folder will contain important and informative notices and flyers. Please check it and clean it out nightly. Student work will be sent home weekly.Additionally, a weekly newsletter will be sent home through Class Dojo as an email or PDF documentParent Portal, a new means of obtaining information about your child’s progress will be discussed at a later date as parent logins have not yet been distributed.
Homework PolicyStudents will receive a weekly homework on Monday that is due the following Monday. It is highly encouraged that your child do a little each night rather than completing the whole packet at one time. This helps to establish strong homework routines.Homework is not graded but is checked for completion and is necessary to review class skills and develop independence. 21T
