We are working on self-management in 4th grade. We have a social contract that the students wrote in the fall, and we readdressed the contract last week. Students understand the expectations and consequences. Please ask your child about the contract.
We are spreading love, not germs in 4th grade. We appreciate any donations of Clorox wipes during the flu season. We have discussed with students the importance of washing hands and covering mouths and noses when coughing and sneezing. If your child does become sick, please notify Mrs. Klaus in the front office. I will put any missed work in the office by 2:00 pm for you to pick up each day.
