Dear Third Grade Families,
I hope everyone is having a fun and restful long weekend with your family. Here is all the information that you and your child will need for this week, 9/5-9/9. Please make sure to read all important information to avoid questions that are clearly stated on all emails/ reminders. I would greatly appreciate it!
COVID Tests
Since we have 4 confirmed positive cases in the school, if your child is sick and showing any symptoms, please keep them home.
PE EVERY TUESDAY (TOMORROW)Every Tuesday, our kiddos must wear their complete PE uniform. Please check the handbook for details about the uniform and correct tennis shoes.
Schedule
Starting Tuesday, September 6th, we will have our full-day schedule 7:50 AM -3:00 PM. Please see the attachment below for our Third-grade block schedule.
Homework folder
Every day, students will be bringing home their green homework folder (to be passed out on Tuesday). If you haven’t signed and turned in some of the important documents, I am sending them home along with a family income survey one per household. Please return these documents by Wednseday, Sept 7th.
All students are expected to return their green homework folder to school every day. A bin will be placed inside the classroom for collection. It should be placed in number order. This should be done as soon as they hang up their backpacks. Please help me encourage our third graders to be independent and responsible for turning things in. This will be part of our third grade morning routine.
