attending school assemblies. There will be surprises when least
expected. This is the joy of being in this Kindergarten class!
Nightly Routine
Every night your child will bring home their folder. It is important that you check your child’s folder each night. A newsletter will be sent weekly. Your child will also have a monthly homework and behavior calendar that needs to remain in their folder. I will take out their calendar at the end of each month and replace it with one for the next month.
Important notes from me or from the school will be included in your child’s folder. All of your child’s class work will be sent home on Friday’s.
Bus and Pickups
For the first two weeks of school, your child must wear their tags that identify if they
are bus riders or pickup.
Picking up your child

by 3:15, otherwise you will be requested to wait in the cafeteria.NOTE: Early checkouts equal a
tardy.
