Welcome to 5th grade! I look forward to a rewarding and challenging year, as well as the opportunity to get to know you and your student. If you have questions or concerns at any time during the school year, please feel free to leave me a voice mail message, write a note on your student's homework sheet, or email me.

* If your student is absent from school, he or she is responsible for making up class work and homework missed.

* A "We Missed You" form will be prepared by me listing all missed class work and homework assignments.This form, attached to completed missed classwork and homework, must be turned in by the due date written in order for your student to receive credit.

* You can arrange to pick up your student's work or have it sent home with a friend or sibling in our building. Please call me in the morning, before school, on the day of your student's absence, to let me know what would be most convenient.

* The number of days absent will equal the number of days allowed to make up work.

* Extensions for making up work will be given in emergency or unique circumstances.

* Your student is responsible for turning in the "We Missed You" form and all assignments missed.

If your student needs medication in school, a special form needs to be filled out and given to our school nurse along with your student's medication. Blank "medication in school" forms were included in the packet of information your student received. Additional blank "medication in school" forms are available from our school nurse.

More detailed information, describing district & school policy, may be requested from our school office.
