Miscellaneous Information From Your Teachers

*Please remember to send your child's Ipad to school every day.  Also, please make sure that it is charged every evening as we do not have chargers at school for the Ipads. Thank you!! 

*As the weather turns colder, please remember that we will still be going outside for recess.  District policy states that if the "feels like" temperature is above 32 degrees we will be going outside for some fresh air.  Please make sure your child is dressed appropriate for recess weather.  Also, please write your child's name on the tag of their jacket.  Names in the jackets help keep them out of lost and found! 

*We have a short snack time each day. It is important that they have a healthy and nutritious snack each day to fuel their bodies. We also ask that the snack they bring is completely free of peanuts/tree nuts. This will help provide a safe environment for all learners. Also, please make sure that your child's water bottle has a "spill proof" cap.  Thank you for your help!
