*All newsletter dates are tentative, and you will be notified if dates

change. Thank you for your understanding!

Please go over your childs graded papers each week
with him or her. This is an excellent opportunity for you
and your child to see what learning opportunities are taking
place at school. Also, please take the time to talk to your
child about the importance of always doing his or her best
work and following directions thoroughly. We continue to
reinforce the concept of slowing down and checking work
before turning it in to be graded.
Please make sure that you are checking your childs
binder every night for homework and behavior notes. t is
very important for your child to be held accountable at
home for their behavior and effort at school. !eview our
classroom policies and school rules regarding absences,
dress code, snacks, etc.
As always, if you have "uestions or concerns, please
do not hesitate to call or email. We are here for you#
Thanks
Allyson Houlton
