Reminders:*March 2nd - March 20th:
WJMS canned food drive to help our local food pantry. GSES has a goal of $5000 cans! The west side school that donates the most will win $500. Please consider helping out and sending in some cans! *Please be sure to send any money (ice cream, lunch, etc.) in an envelope or baggie labeled with your child's name. I do not accept money that is just given to me loose. *If you need to write a note for your child's transportation change, please write a separate note (not just in the agenda) so I can send it to the office. Thank you! :-) *School starts promptly at 7:40. This year our schedule is very tight and we will begin instruction promptly at 7:40. It is best to have your child here in the classroom by 7:15. It is VERY difficult (not to mention a big distraction) for a first grade student to come in late and need to unpack while instruction has already started. *IF your child will be eating BREAKFAST at school, please read below! BREAKFAST: *If your child eats breakfast AT school, they will need to report to the cafeteria beginning at 7:15 am. If this is part of their morning routine, be sure to remind them! I will not know if they need to eat breakfast and often times first graders will forget and then tell me they didn't eat after breakfast is over! *ALWAYS send lunch/ice cream money to school in an envelope or baggie with your child's name and lunch number on the outside. *Please check your child's binder and agenda pocket every day! Also, don't forget to initial each day of the agenda. Students earn a penny in their bank for having their agenda signed. *PLEASE do not call the classroom and leave a message or email me with transportation changes. ONLY call the office BEFORE 1:30. Mrs. Flanagan will notify me of transportation changes at the end of the day. |
