This 'N That

A few reminders:

• It is VERY chilly outside these days . . . please make sure your child wears appropriate outdoor gear to school for recess (coat, snowpants, boots, mittens/gloves, hats).  If you need help with winter gear, please contact your child's teacher or the KE office.  Also - even if it's a "warmer" day, PLEASE send a coat with your child.  The weather can change unexpectedly, and while he/she can always take off a coat, it is hard to put one if you don't bring it.

• School begins at 8:25.  We start our day right away, so it is important that your child is in the classroom ready to go at 8:25 (not getting out of the car at that time) -- students arriving 10 minutes late miss the beginning instructions for science or social studies.  Students are allowed to enter classrooms at 8:05.  While we don't require that students arrive by 8:05, it is nice for them to have a few minutes to unpack their bag, sharpen pencils, and get ready for the day.  Thank you for helping your child arrive on time.

• Monday is a no school day

• Today marks the end of 2nd quarter.  Report cards will be sent home on Monday, January 23. (3H families -- please take note of the form that will be in your child's report card regarding scheduling p/t conferences.  As we discussed last fall, I will be holding conferences for those families who desire to meet with me before I go on maternity leave.)
