Cell Phones, iPads, Emails, and Watches
4th grade has been having some distractions about communicating with their families or friends via smart watches, cell phones, iPads or emails during the school day. It is a school policy that students are not allowed to message or respond to messages during the day on smart watches, cell phones, iPads or emails. If your child needs to get in touch with you or you need to get in touch with your child, please do that through my email or call the front office. From here on out, students will get one warning if this is continuing before being asked to keep their communication device in their backpack during the school day.
Please note that your learners SCHOOL EMAIL is to be used for academic purposes only.
New Positive Covid-19 Case Reporting Procedure
A big thank you to our families for communicating positive student Covid cases to us. In order to help streamline the communication process for both families and our campus nurse, please fill out the following Google Form if your child receives a positive Covid-19 test. The form information goes directly to our campus nurse. https://forms.gle/VUex3RUqzgtsNa716
Once our nurse has received the form from a family, she will reach out to them during school hours to discuss a return date to school and any questions they may have.
WEATHER: Just a reminder that we will go outside for recess as long as the "feels like" is above 32 degrees. Please make sure your child has the appropriate clothing, jackets, etc. on those colder days.
Each learner needs to have the following items each day:
1. Water Bottle
2. Snack (if your child will be buying one from the cafeteria, this needs to be done as soon as they get to school - not during class)
3. Fully charged iPad - please make sure it is charging at night by double checking the battery icon.
4. If your child brings lunch from home, we are encouraging them to bring their own silverware as the cafe supply is low.

Homework and Extra Practice
At this time, we will not be assigning any homework. If you are looking for extra practice or resources, we would always encourage students to read at home! (Kids are more motivated to read when they are reading books they've chosen and find interesting.) In addition, students have access to online resources such as iStation, Raz Kids. For math, we would love for students to login to Dreambox or ReflexMath at home and complete lessons.
