Reminders:
1. These
are a few reminders concerning homework and classwork:
A. All
work must be completed in blue or black ink (other colors will not be accepted).
B. If
the assignment states that looseleaf is to be used, no other types of
paper will be accepted (paper ripped out of notebooks or legal pads is unacceptable).
C.
Homework must be handed in on the day due, unless I receive a not from a parent
explaining why you did not complete your HW. This will only
be accepted if there is an emergency at home (not because you were
too tired or that you had too much other HW).
D.
Homework and classwork must be neat. Work that is sloppy or illegible will not be accepted.
E. All
students should bring a shopping bag (preferably a heavy bag or 2) by Tuesday, so they can pack up the books that
they will not be bringing home over the Easter vacation. They have a lot of
notebooks and textbooks to be packed up so the bag(s) should be strong enough to
hold all of them. All of the desks will be cleaned, so nothing may remain in
the desks.
F. Thursday,
April 10 there will be a 12:00 dismissal. Parent Conferences will take place
between the hours of 2:00-7:00. If you child does not receive his/her Report
Card in school, please come ad meet with the teachers during the above hours.
G.
Friday, April 11 there will be an 11:00 dismissal due to a Teacher’s Workshop.
There will be Stations of the Cross at 8:30 followed by an Honors Assembly
(check your child’s Report Card to see if they will receive an award). After
the Honors Assembly, we will have a small Easter Party (5th grade).
Please let your child know what they can bring in to share with the class. The children
may wear dress clothes. If you have any questions, please send me a note.
Remember
that homework and classwork count as a grade!
