First Graders Rock!
First Grade is going to be an amazing, fun year filled with lots of learning and new adventures!
It is an important year in building foundational reading and math fluency skills.
The best way to help your child in this important year is to read and practice math facts at home.

Welcome to First Grade! It's going to be a productive year for your child.
- Please make sure your child's name is on their backpacks, jackets, sweatshirts etc.
- We have physical education every Friday. Please make sure your child is wearing sneakers for physical education.
- Your child may bring a healthy snack and drink for our morning snack break. Please make sure your child knows what he/she is to eat at snack time. Don't forget a drink for lunch (if you don't participate in the milk program).
- This year, first graders will be going outside for recess at 11:55 and will eat lunch at 12:20.
- Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately for outside recess. Remember, sneakers are the best choice for playing on the playground.
- Your child will occassionally bring home their word book. Have your child read the words to you and sign the word book that night. Please make sure that this book is returned to school the next day. The children are NOT to write or draw in this book!
- Empty your child's folder every night. Talk with your child about the work that they bring home. Also, there will be important notes and information that you will need to be aware of.
