First Week Information

Good Morning!

I am very excited to welcome everyone on Wednesday!  Below are some reminders about the first week of school and information about our specialist schedule for this school year.

Wednesday will be our first day together and will also be a half day of school.  The first grade team will be down in the gym to welcome everyone for morning assembly beginning at 7:45.  Assembly will begin at 8:00 on Wednesday and each day this school year.  For the remainder of the year I will be in the gym by 8:00 to help the kids get organized for the day.

Dismissal on Wednesday for first graders will be at 11:55.  I will walk them down to the parking lot for pickup.  Throughout the first few months of school I will walk the kids down each day at dismissal at 2:30. 

On Wednesday each child should bring a bag snack and drink.  On Wednesday, and each day this school year, we will have snack together at 10:00.  On Thursday, students should bring both a bag snack and a bag lunch.  School lunch will be available beginning on Tuesday, September 8th.

We will have a special each day this school year with gym falling on Tuesday and Friday afternoons.  We will begin our first full week of specials on Tuesday the 8th.  In the fall, students should wear their gym shorts, t-shirts and sneakers to school on gym days.

On Wednesday in your child's home folder you will find information about first grade policies (most listed on my blog as well) and various notices from BSS.  If you have any questions, please let me know!

See you Wednesday!
