Your child's behavior chart and agenda can be found in their folder. Please review their behavior daily and initial. Their homework and/or any reminders can be found on their agenda.

Homework:
Your child will receive their homework on Mondays and will be responsible for returning it on Friday. Please review your child's homework before they bring it back to school. There may also be additional homework given throughout the week. Any homework should be recorded on your child's agenda. Homework may not be given on a weekly basis. If you would like to work with your child on a week that no homework is assigned, please review multiplication facts and read.
