September 9, 2009

 

Dear Parents,

Welcome back to school! I hope your summer was very enjoyable.  I am very excited  and looking forward to meeting and working with your children.  My goal is to make this school year a very challenging and exciting one.

            To help make this school year a successful one, I listed below some opening day instructions.  Please keep this newsletter throughout the year for a reference.

 

Friday, September 11: 12:00 Dismissal

 

School Supplies

            Please bring your school bag and pencil case with 2 sharpened pencils and an eraser on Friday.  All other supplies, listed below need to be sent to school on Monday September 14.  Please be sure to put your child’s name on all of the materials.

 

·         1 art box – Please no larger than 8” x 5”

·         1 pencil case containing extra pencils

·         3 pocket folders

·         Magic Markers

·         1 box of crayons – Please no larger than a 24 pack

·         1 old T-shirt for messy art activities

·         1 glue stick for cut and paste activities

·         1 bottle of Elmer’s School Glue

·         1 box of tissues for classroom use during the year

·         1 container of Clorox wipes for classroom use during the year

Also,

·         1 Activity book for use during rainy day recesses

·         1 or 2 picture books – Your child needs to always have an extra book in his/her desk everyday.  There will be a silent reading period during the school day.

 

Fee for School Supplies Already Provided

Please send $7.55 in an envelope marked “School Supplies” with your child’s name on it by Monday, September 21.  This will cover the cost of 3 copybooks and scissors which has been provided for your child’s use.  Please send the art fee of $20.00 in cash in a separate envelope.  If you are writing a check for the copybooks, etc., please make it payable to Saint Helena School.  Please be sure the envelopes have my name on them, also so they are not mistakenly sent to the office.  I record your name when the money has been sent to school.  Thank you.

 

·         $5.55 – 3 copybooks at $1.85 each

·         $2.00 – scissors

·         $20.00 – Art Fee – This will eliminate collection materials as each activity occurs for the whole year.

 

Books

The books that we currently have will be sent home to be covered over the next few nights.  Please cover all workbooks with clear contact.  The books are easily recognizable and well protected in this manner.  Also, please label each book with your child’s first and last name on the front cover.

 

Dismissal

The children will be dismissed as a school.  We ask that parents not come into the building at dismissal time.

            Children will not be permitted to take alternate forms of transportation other than what you have stated on the attached paper, unless  I receive a note stating the change in transportation.  If you forgot a note, please call the office and I will get the message.

            If your child is visiting someone else after school, I would like a note from both children’s parents.  Please include the transportation to be used.  This is for your child’s protection.  Please note – a child may not ride on any other district’s bus than the one in which he/she lives. (ex: If your child lives in the Methacton School District, he/she may not ride on a Wissahickon bus.  These are the districts’ rules.)

            This year the children will be asked to wear name tags for the first two weeks of school.  Please put your child’s mode of transportation on the back of the card.

 

T – Folder

            The T – Folder is what I use to send home classroom information, notes, tests, etc.  Please make sure the T – Folders are returned to me, along with all tests and quizzes signed by you, by the next day.

 

H – Folder

            The H – Folder will be sent home every night.  Homework worksheets will be contained in the H - Folder.  Worksheets completed during each day will also be contained in the H – Folder.  The completed pages may be kept at home.  Homework should be returned by the next day.

 

Homework Procedures

            Homework will be posted on the St. Helena website and can be found in the faculty section under “Ms. Robin Remley.”  If there is a handout for homework please be sure to check your child’s folder which should be returned on the date assigned.  All homework must be completed every night.  Your child’s homework will provide reinforcement of daily work and will nurture a sense of responsibility in your child.  Please sign your child’s homework every night.  Your signature on all homework is an indication to me that it has been supervised and completed.  If you observe your child having a problem with his/her homework, please inform.  Your child is responsible for turning in their homework each day.

            Homework should take about 20 - 30 minutes to complete each night

 

 

 

 

Math Facts

            Please review the assigned work each night.  I strongly suggest you purchase or make flash cards to be reviewed with your child.  Mastery of these math facts is very important.

 

Absence

            A note must be brought in the day of your child’s return stating the date and reason for absence.  This letter is in addition to calling the school on the day your child is absent.

            If you foresee your child being absent for a long period of time, for example, a family vacation.  Please contact me well in advance.

            Missed work will be sent home, on the day your child returns, to be completed with you at home.

 

Discipline

            I will give you a call to inform you if I find your child is experiencing difficulties or if their work is not being completed.

            Please let me know if your child is going through something unusual at home as I am aware and may act accordingly.

 

Scholastic Books

Scholastic orders will be done online.  Directions on how to do this are attached at the end of this letter.

 

Lunch

            Lunch will be a new experience for some children.  A note from you in their lunch box once in awhile can make this easier for some children.

            All lunch money must be placed in an envelope with your child’s name on it.  Loose money is lost very easily.

            Please be sure to separate hot lunch money from juice, ice cream, and chips money.  One envelope is for hot lunch and one envelope or change purse is for juice, etc. money.  I will only collect hot lunch money each morning.  Thank you.

 

Snacks

            Pretzels are sold everyday at 10:15 A.M. recess.  A pretzel is $.50.  Children are welcome to buy a pretzel or bring in their own nutritious snack.

 

Physical Education

            Your child’s Gym day is Monday.  Children wear their gym clothes to school on that day.

 

Birthdays

            Birthday treats are always welcome.  There are 27 children in Grade 1-R.  Please choose a simple treat.  I would ask you to not send in juice, or whole cakes as a snack.  Please make sure the treats are already in individual pieces (cupcakes, cookies, brownies, donuts, etc.).  Please let me know when you would like the class to celebrate your child’s birthday.  Please supply napkins for the class.

            If you are having a party for your child at home, you may send invitations into school provided they are for all of the (11)girls or all of the (16)boys or the whole class (27).  If some of the children are not invited, please send the invitations by mail.  A whole school directory will be provided by the Home and School Association.  Miss Britt’s class has 27 children.

 

Names

            Please place your child’s name on everything, especially all of the gym clothing and school sweaters  Please do not allow your child to bring any kinds of toys to school.  If toys become lost it is upsetting for the child.

           

                                                                        Thank you for your cooperation.

                       

                                                                                                Sincerely,

 

 

                                                                                                Miss Robin Remley
