News To Know:
2/3 Curriculum Night
Our Curriculum Night is tomorrow evening from 6 - 6:30 P.M. in our classroom. I will quickly review our Curriculum & Information Slide Show linked on our Class Web Page and then answer any questions. Nothing has changed from last year, so returning parents need not attend unless you just want to hang out! :-)
Wireless Computer Mouse
Students will be learning how to use the trackpad on their Chromebooks....a useful skill. However, if they would like to use a wireless mouse you may send one in. It should have fresh batteries and the small USB dongle that plugs into the computer. Students will be responsible for their own mice; please put names/initials on the mouse. Again, this is optional.
Facebook and Insta!
Join us on Facebook and Instagram! I will post photos of your kids at work and play!!

Attendance Line and Dismissal Changes
If your child is going to be absent from school, the office asks you to please call the Hershey Attendance Line at 765-269-8342. Also, if there is a change in your child's dismissal, please call the Hershey Office directly before 2:30 at 765-269-8280 rather than emailing the teacher(s).....we don't always check our email and don't want to miss anything. Thanks!!
Web Page
You can find all sorts of stuff on our page, including a link to our Google Classrooms, spelling and vocabulary word lists, behavior and grading policies, our daily schedule, and a link to all of our newsletters. I would suggest you bookmark this page, as you and your child will use it often! For reference, this link will always be listed at the bottom of this newsletter and on any emails I send.
