Carpool/Carpool Numbers- We have attached luggage tags to your students book bags
displaying his or her carpool number. Please be sure to keep this tag on your childs book bag,
as well as to display this number in your windshield during carpool (either using a decal, or
writing it under the childs name on a large piece of paper). Carpool ends at 3:35.

least 20 minutes on 18 days of the month. They should also answer one question in compete
sentences on the back of the log.

Book Report: The bi-monthly book report instructions will be sent home Mid-September.

Third-Topia: If you would like to donate any items to our treasure box, please send them in
with your child! We would love if any parents would be interested in donating a basketball,
soccer ball, and a football to purchase as some of the larger treasure box options.

Reminders
Please check your childs Daily Folder and Agenda each day after school. The agenda
contains important information regarding assessments, assignments and projects. It also
contains assignments from the day that may need to be completed as homework.

If your child brings work home in the Homework section of the daily folder, this work needs
to be finished as homework, and should be turned in the next day.

Please try to remind your student to bring two snacks each day. We are letting them know it
is their responsibility to make sure they pack them.

Chapel is every Tuesday morning. Please have your child wear the chapel uniform and
proper accessories (ties and cross-ties).
