Dear Students and Families,
Homework goes home today, and is due Tuesday, September 7th. There is no school Monday because of the Labor Day holiday. Homework includes daily reading logs and weekly book reports. Parents, please help your child fill out the reading logs. But, students should write their own book reports. Students need to read, or be read to, at least 20 minutes every day.
Scholastic book order forms are going home today, and will go home about once a month. Scholastic offers a way to purchase low cost, grade level books for your child's home library. Please make checks payable to me when ordering books. Cash is okay, too. It takes about two weeks to receive orders.
Open House is Tuesday, September 31st, 5:30-6:6:30 for the Green Building (that's us!). Open House is a time to come see our beautiful school and meet your child's teachers and Helen Cordero's staff. Everyone is welcome.
The morning bell rings at 7:45. Students should be at their classroom, ready to go in and begin the day when the bell rings. Breakfast is served every morning to every student in the classroom. Breakfast is over at 8:00 A.M. It is very important for students to arrive on time, and to be at school every day possible! Missing a day, or being tardy, causes your child to miss important activities and learning.
Permission slips to photograph your child go home today. Photographs of lessons, activities and student work will be posted on my blog. No personal, student or family information will be posted. I believe you will enjoy seeing your kids in action in the classroom and around school. On my blog, you will find copies of class newsletters, important school news, dates, and events. You can join in with comments, too!

Check your child's backpack daily for important notes and papers.
You may call me at home if you have questions. The best time to reach me is between 4:30 and 6:00 PM on weekdays, or all day Saturday and Sunday. Please call no later than 9:00 PM.
I check my email everyday, so that is a great way to contact me also!
Sincerely, Mrs. Wise
