Read to a Million
Rasor Elementary Read to One Million starts this weekend. As a school we are asking students to read 30 minutes each day, seven days a week. When you read to your child, these minutes also count. Please write in the number of minutes your child reads in their daily folder, including weekend minutes. Students can also count the time that they read in the classroom.
Lunch With Students
Parents, we are working with your children on being strong, independent students. If you would help reinforce this when you come to have lunch with your children by having them sit on the seat next to you and feeding themselves.
Parent Volunteers
Kindergarten classes need parent volunteers for parties that we have throughout the school year. If you would like to volunteer please contact Larisa Parsons at larisaparsons@yahoo.com.
You must complete a PISD background check to volunteer. You can find the link on the PISD website. Please complete the background check as soon as possible.
Homework
- Please make sure that homework is returned by Friday.
- Homework is meant to teach responsibility (taking home and returning an assignment).
- If your child is unable to do the homework (formation of letters/numbers you may make these in yellow highlighter and have your child trace them.)
- Homework must be completed in PENCIL. If coloring is in the directions please use crayons only. No markers. Please check quality of your child's work.
