You are cordially invited to be
a partner in your child’s education.
Back to School Night- September 9th 7 pm
Thank you to all who have expressed interest in volunteering in our classroom this year! Your child’s education is indeed a team effort, and we all benefit from the wisdom and support of others. At Back to School Night I will have a form circulating for parent volunteers.
I know that third grade is going to be a great year! There are so many fun things to do and learn in third grade, and I can't wait to get started!
Please note that we are a nut free classroom. (See list at bottom of this page.)
Parents: Please encourage your child to read 20 minutes every night! This will help your child become a better reader. Students should also practice basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division facts. These need to be automatic in order to move on to multi-step problems.
