Pick Up & Water Bottles

Remember: The rest of the week is EARLY OUT and end at 1:30pm.  If your student takes a daycare/transportation van, please send me an email with your students name and the van/company name they are transported with.  

To help ease pick up jitters for parents and students, I wanted to let you know that I lead our class out the EAST doors.  Carpool students will go to the back of the building.  I take all other students to the tree just in front of OUR classroom windows.  

If you have instructed your child to meet you somewhere else (often with older siblings), they can then let me know they will be going to that spot.  Otherwise, your child will be waiting at our designated spot and can go with you after your child lets us know you are there and we see you.  

We will do this the first few days until we all feel comfortable with pick up.

Hot Weather + Recess = Thirsty First Graders!  🙂

Please send your child with a water bottle EACH DAY to keep in their cubbies (preferably one that doesn’t spill easily).   One drinking fountain with an entire class of students takes a lot of time and we want to make sure they are getting enough water.  Thanks so much!
