CLASSROOM REMINDERS
CLASSROOM REMINDERS
- Parents please be reminded that all undershirts under uniform shirt must be white.
- ALL homework books and assignments should be signed and dated by parents.
- Students should have at 3 - 5 sharpened pencils for school each day (this is a daily homework and should be a part of the packing routine). Sharpening pencils during class time is not allowed as sharpeners are not allowed.
- Each student should have a glue stick (we do a lot of cutting and pasting and the glue stick is easier to work with), crayons or colored pencils, scissors, and a big eraser. (The pencil erasers do NOT last long).
- There is no morning playtime children should proceed from the car directly to the classroom to begin bell-work.
- Parents please be reminded that lunch for warming should be precooked or a microwaveable spaghetti/soup in a plastic container. Noodles and Kraft dinners are discouraged by the school and cannot be accommodated.
- SWEATERS - Please be reminded that school sweaters are GREEN. Sweaters are on sale at the school's bookstore.
REPLENISH SUPPLIES - SCISSORS ARE NOT SHOWING UP IN CLASS; PENCILS ARE NOT SHARPENED OR NON-EXISTENT; GLUE STICKS ARE BEING USED UP.
