Welcome Back to School!

Handwriting

Welcome to First Grade! We hope you had a fun and safe summer. It
sure seems to have gone by fast!
You can help us foster your students independence this school year
by letting them walk to class by themselves after the first two days.
After the first week, parents will no longer be permitted to walk
their student to the classroom.

First and Last Name

(Use a capital letter for the first letter!)

Student lunches are $2.75, and adult lunches are $4.50. Please pack
lunches that are easy for students to manage in their 25-minute
lunchtime. Encourage your student to use his/her manners in the
cafeteria!
