Check Your Child’s Homework Daily!
3rd Grade is one of the most vital grades in your child’s education.
Please have your child come to school every day so he/she will not fall behind on content.
Unexcused absences will result in a “zero” for that day’s missed assignment(s).
Please be mindful of picking up your child early. There are two teachers involved in their day so they miss out on lessons.
Attendance
The End!
Thank you for coming!
Together we will make this year a successful
and fun-filled adventure!
