General Classroom Information
I will try to keep parents informed and publish new information on the weekly focus and home page almost every week. Students will have a dark blue folder with a back pocket for their homework sheet. Home work sheets should be initialed each evening. It is your child's responsibility to make sure that you initial this this sheet. In this folder is also a pocket for papers to be returned to school and papers that may stay at home. If you need to contact me, you can call the school (653-6175) and I can return your call during my prep time, you can e-mail me at [email protected]. I will try to return your e-mail that day. Or you can write me a note and I will return a note to you. I will also send out occasional Remind text notices. To receive those, text @9gka94 to 81010.

Water Bottles: Students may bring and keep a water bottle, one that seals shut, at their desk as long as they act responsibly with it. There is nowhere to clean one here at school so you may want to discuss with your child how often you would like them to bring it home or dispose of it.
Exercise (Yoga) Ball: Students have the option of using a yoga ball instead of a chair. If you chose to send in a ball, you must bring it, it cannot be sent on the bus. The best size ball to purchase is 55 cm. They fit under the desks the best. There are particular rules that you and your child must sign off on in order to be allowed to keep the ball at school. If he/she abuses this privilege, you will be contacted and the ball will be sent home.
Scholastic Book Orders: From time to time I will send home Scholastic Book orders. If you would like to order you may make out a check payable to me, or go online (scholastic.com) and order online using the class code GTQV7.
School Fees: There are times that fees will be collected (lunch,fundraisers, field trips, etc.) Please make sure that this is in a sealed envelope with your child's name on it. All checks should be made out to Central Elementary School unless stated otherwise.
