Mothers of Aimee, Katie and Andrew and John ~ for filing papers in WOW folders every Thursday, and doing miscellaneous jobs. I couldn't do it without you! PTO ~ for the financial help we need to maintain and improve the technology in our classrooms. Food ~ I like to reward students who return things on time, keep their desks neat, complete AR goals, show kindness to a new student, complete all homework, have perfect attendance, etc. Food is always a great reward! Please send cookies, candy, or other food motivators, anytime throughout the year, packaged so that I don't have to use them immediately, but will use them within a week. We have 22 students in our great class! Thanks so much! |

| SPECIAL REQUESTS ... |
| Student Absences - must now be recorded by the teachers as excused or unexcused. An absence is excused only if a parent sends a note following the absence, explaining the reason for the child missing school. Tardies - after 5 tardies, teachers notify the administration. No child will be marked tardy if he rides the bus and the bus is late. |
| Cafeteria Charges - The cafeteria will not allow students to charge lunches. However, no child will ever go without food. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches will be provided for those students who forgot their lunch money. To avoid this occurrence, keep some extra money in your child's lunch account. |

| The use of the Responsibility Book has improved student behavior, which has provided teachers with more instructional time. Students are now monitoring themselves, and are avoiding behaviors which would prevent them from going on the Chattanooga field trip. |

| Our class pet, Kiwi, is a cockatiel. He says "Hello" and comes close to students who talk to him. He does not like it when students point at him or tap his cage. |
| We're very excited about our upcoming class trip to Chattanooga on March 28! |
