Agenda Please check your child's agenda daily for any notes from me. This will be one way I communicate with you, as well as via phone call and/or e-mail, if necessary.
Copy Parents: Thank you for offering to help our class out by making copies. I will send home a folder with your child when copies are needed. There will be directions included. In most cases, you will have a week to return them to me. If you cannot make them, please send them back as soon as possible and I will pass them on to someone else.
Medication: If your child is taking medicine, either over the counter or prescription, it needs to be sent to the front office with directions and they will administer it there. Cough drops are also considered medicine and are not allowed for the children to have them in their possession.
ID: Every person who enters school grounds must have a drivers licence or state issued ID card. Without this you will not be allowed in the school.
