Welcome to 4th Grade!  I am so excited to work with you and your child this year!  On this site you will find important information about our classroom.  Please feel free to contact me at any time with questions or comments you may want to share.  It's going to be a wonderful year!

Pick Up Information

Children being picked up by parents or guardians will be dismissed at approximately 3:25.   Please send a note with your child if you plan to pick him or her up at school.   If your child will be picked up on a routine basis, you need only send one note indicating the day(s) and I will add it to our dismissal schedule.   I will assume that the child is to be picked up on these days unless you notify me otherwise .

Late/Absentee Information:

      Your child will be marked late if they are not in the classroom by 9 a.m.   If you drop your child off later than this time, please bring them to the office to sign in.

      If your child is going to be absent, please notify the Absentee Hotline at (610)938-6510 for each day that your child will not be in attendance.   If you would like me to send homework with another student, please e-mail or call me before noon so I can arrange this.

Snacks:

      Your child may bring in a snack to eat during class time.   The children choose a point during the day to have their snack while they continue with the current class activity.   Please send your child with a nutritional snack that does not contain high amounts of sugar or fat, as these foods tend to interfere with the children’s energy levels.   Excellent healthy snacks include pretzels, fruit, vegetables, or crackers.   Please do not send candy or chips to school with your child.

Birthdays:

      Feel free to send your child to school with a special treat on his or her birthday.   We will be happy to celebrate him or her on that special day.   Individual items such as donuts, cupcakes, or juice boxes are appreciated so that serving and clean up are as easy as possible.
