Good Afternoon First Grade Families!
We had another great week in 1st Grade. So much learning going on with this group!
Our Paraprofessional helper has changed. We now have Mrs. Sutton and Mrs. Dean. They are job sharing the week.
So far so good!
I recently sent emails with a Zoom Link for our Parent Teacher Conferences coming up this week. If you did not receive one please let me know. Also, if you have a specific concern or question, please let me know that as well. I want to make sure we use our time wisely :)
*Also, you are welcome to set up a Zoom conference with any of our specials teachers as well. Information about that was included in last weeks news posting.
We have a 1/2 day on Friday, November 20. The kids will not need to bring a snack that day...I will be bringing my birthday treat that morning :)
I am hoping you all know that after the 1/2 day, we are not returning to school until Monday, November 30. Please stay safe and healthy during this extended break.
