Dear 3rd Grade Families,
Welcome to 3rd Grade! It’s my pleasure to be your child’s teacher! Back to School Night is August 9 in room C4 5:30-6:00 followed by a Principal’s Address in the MP Room 6:00-6:30. I can’t wait to tell you all about the great things that will be happening in the upcoming school year. To help get the year off to a smooth start below is some information for you:
The “Casey News” classroom newsletter will be sent via email each week on or before Monday. It’s very important to read the weekly news. It’s my way of keeping families informed about what’s going on in the classroom weekly. You’ll find lots of helpful information. If you do not have email and require a paper copy please notify me, otherwise all weekly news will be sent by email.
There are lots of important forms going home on the 1st day of school that need to be return. Please complete all forms and return them to school no later than Friday, August 12th.
During the 1st Trimester Progress Reports will be sent home weekly on Wednesdays in our schools “Important Papers Folder”, which will include your child’s completed class work. Please keep the work, review the progress report, sign the progress report, and return it along with the folder the following day. You will receive your first progress report the 3rd week of school.
Homework will be assigned nightly Monday – Thursday. Your child will be responsible for writing down his/her homework in the provided Sunrise Homework Agenda, which should be kept in his/her homework binder. Homework binders and agendas need to come to school daily. More details on homework procedures and expectations to come at BTSN.
Student Supply Donation: Please help your child have a successful year by sending them to school with the needed supplies. Please see the attached “Student Supply Donation List”.
Before school: School begins at 8:15. Students are to line up on the blacktop at our designated red dot #23 by 8:10 and be ready for the warning bell. Your child is tardy if they are not in line by the 8:15 tardy bell. To ensure your child’s safety, your child may not be dropped off at school prior to 8:10 unless he/she attends Champions Day Care or is having breakfast in the MP Room. There is no yard supervision prior to this time.
After school dismissal: All students are dismissed from our classroom door. Those children who are not picked up at the door walk to the front gate and are to wait for a parent/guardian in the pick-up zone. Due to the heavy traffic walking or bike riding is highly encouraged to minimize before and after school traffic. Please have a plan that your child is aware for after school dismissal! It’s best to designate a meeting place.
Lunch: All Sunrise students have been assigned a 4-digit lunch pin number. If you send your child to school with lunch money please make sure it is in an envelope or baggy labeled with the child’s first/last name, pin number , and teacher’s name. This is to ensure the funds are credited in the correct account.
I hope to see you all at Back to School Night! Thanks for your support – together we make a difference!
