progress reports

Progress reports are sent out from the office mid-quarter, however, you can expect your child to take one home on Fridays.  This will allow you to better track your child's progress.  Fifth graders may make up missed assignments and make corrections to assignments (with the exception of tests) to improve grades before the end of the quarter.

breakfast & Lunch

Breakfast is served every morning beginning at 8:00am.  Lunch is served for elementary students at 11:45am.   All students receive free meals.  A monthly breakfast and lunch menu will be given to students at the beginning of each month.

Class & Library books

Fifth graders have library time on Mondays, at which time they're allowed to borrow books. They also have the option to borrow books from our class library at any time.  Please encourage your child to take care of these books and return them in a timely manner.

incentives

Good behavior, hard work, and citizenship is rewarded in our classroom.  Students earn gold cards for outstanding acts of kindness or good work, which are turned into the office for a weekly class drawing (awarded by Mr. Bahnsen).  Students in class who complete certain assignments may earn a chance to select a treat from our treasure chest.  Also, students with ten consecutive green cards will be eligible to select an item from our special treasure chest!

birthdays

On your child's special day, you're welcome to bring in snacks to share with our class.  Please just let me know ahead of time for planning purposes.

book orders

Book orders will be made available to students a few times throughout the school year.  Please send cash only to speed up the ordering process.  This way we'll avoid snail mail.
