Fourth Grade
Note to Parents
Happy second to last week before Winter Break!
We have many Tardy 4th Graders each day for school. The students need to be in their classrooms before 7:30 to be considered on time. If your child needs/wants to eat breakfast they should be walking into the building as close to 7:15 as possible.
Also, we work on our Spelling Packets right away in the morning. So, if your child needs to eat at school the sooner they get here the better.
We would appreciate any reminders you can give your child about school starting at 7:30. The expectation is that they should be in their seat working on their Spelling when the bell rings.

Monday, December 18 - Family Tree Presentation - if you DO NOT want your child to be present for this talk sign and return the slip on the back of this letter
