Week of Sept. 6th

Dear Parents,

We hope you're having an awesome weekend!  We couldn't ask for more beautiful weather!

A few reminders:

1. This Thursday is Back to School Night (parents only).  We are looking forward to seeing you!  We will be going over our classroom procedures and things to look forward to this year, as well as answering any questions you may have.  We will meet in the classroom from 6:30-7:00pm.  Then, we will meet in the multi-purpose room with Mrs. Lobao from 7:05-7:30pm.  

2. Parent Teacher Conferences are 10/16-10/23.  We are looking forward to meeting with you to discuss your child's transition into kindergarten.  Please CLICK HERE to sign-up for a day and time.  

3. Your child's first homework packet will go home this Friday and is due the following Wednesday. Generally, homework will go home Thursdays and is due on Wednesdays.  The weekly homework is designed to reinforce what we are learning in class.  The most important part of the homework is reading to and with your child each evening.
