ATTENTION 4TH GRADE PARENTS
4th GRADE PARENTS
As part of this year’s music curriculum, your child will be learning to play the soprano recorder. If your son/daughter already has a soprano recorder, they may start bringing it to music class. If you're interested in purchasing one through the school, click here: https://humbleisd.revtrak.net/Elementary-Schools-1011/Elementary-Schools-A-M/groves-elementary/ge-music/#/v/GE---Music-Recorders
MORNING ARRIVAL
We ask all families to drive with caution on Madera Run during the morning arrival time and afternoon dismissal. Go Slow. Be Aware.
Thank you.
CHANGING LEARNING LOCATIONS
Learning Location changes are trending toward most students switching to face-to-face instruction. As stated since the process started, there is a high probability that students will change classroom assignments in order to maintain balanced class sizes.
Parents can change their student's learning location by using the Learning Location Form.
We need your help and understanding as we navigate our new normal of online and face-to-face instruction. It is becoming increasingly difficult to manage the changes as quickly as we did as the number of changes are increasing. There are many people involved in the process, and many applications that need to be changed. Location changes will be processed on the schedule below:
Enter location change between January 25th and 29th, student would start new location on February 1st.
Enter location change between February 1st and 12th, student would start new location on February 16th.
This will allow all students who change to begin the first day of school for that week.
If a Face-to-Face student is out sick, they do not move to an online class. Families may contact the child’s teacher for missed school work if the child feels able.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation with this plan.
LUNCH VISITORS
We have news!!! We are going to try out lunch visitors on Fridays and see how it goes. Lunch reservations will be held outdoors at our new picnic tables. Below you will find the link to sign up.
STAYING SAFE
Mask wearing can help us keep more children in school. Wearing a mask decreases the number of close contacts. All individuals who are 10 years or older are required to wear a mask/face covering in school.

CAR RIDER DISMISSAL
During car rider dismissal there are two staff members inputting numbers and directing cars into the inside/outside lanes. We kindly ask that you remain in the lane given as your child's number is specific to a lane. Changing lanes will only result in delays at dismissal.
Currently car rider dismissal starts at 3:10pm and ends PROMPTLY at 3:35pm. Please arrive accordingly for pick up.
A friendly reminder to not get out of your car during dismissal. If your child needs to be buckled, we ask that you pull into the parking lot.
BIRTHDAY TREATS
Parents are permitted to recognize a child’s birthday by sending treats for the child’s homeroom to have during lunch.
At this time we are encouraging the purchase of frozen treats from the cafeteria for all students in the class.
If you choose to send something, please check with your child’s teacher first regarding any allergies in the class. For sanitation purposes, items should be individually wrapped. Some examples are Little Debbies or Hostess treats.
The following items are NOT permitted: pull apart cakes, balloons, goodie bags, gifts, candles, flowers, party hats, etc.
