  3. Student Expectations • Behavior - I emphasize the seriousness of education, respectfulness of the classroom environment, and the importance of students taking responsibility for their own behavior. • Homework – Your child will be assigned homework Monday-Thursday. Homework is expected to be turned in each morning. • Class work – All class work is expected to be turned on time.

  4. Parent Expectations • What I ask of you is to please encourage your child, praise their accomplishments, read to them daily, listen to them on a daily basis, assist them with homework , and communicate with the teacher if there is a question or concern.

  5. Teacher Expectations • My goal is to provide a quality education to each student in a safe and supportive environment. • Students will be taught using the Georgia Performance Standards. • Students individual strengths and weakness’ will be identified using standards based assessments. • Individualized instruction will be used during guided reading and guided math centers.

  6. Conference Requirements • Two conference days a year are scheduled. We will be contacting you to set up a time to review your child’s progress and goals for the year. We will be unable to have a conference unless it is scheduled. Our instructional day begins at 8:00 and we often have meetings during our planning. If you are unable to attend a scheduled conference, please call (770) 651-4800 and leave a message.

  7. Attendance • Instruction will begin at 7:45 AM. Our lessons will continue until 2:30 PM. Our goal is to have 100% attendance everyday so that your child receives the best education possible! When your child is absent, please remember you must send in a note!

  8. Cafeteria Meals • Breakfast $1.00 • Lunch $1.65 • Free & Reduced Lunch Applications will be sent home on Thursday, August 6th. • The maximum amount to be charged is $5.00. • Your child will go to lunch between 11:38 – 12:08.

  9. Transportation • If your child is going home a different way, a note must be sent in on the morning of the change. Please remember that this is extremely important and we cannot allow a child to go home a different way even if the child “says” my mom told me to ride the bus or to be a car rider today. This is for the safety of your child.

  10. BUS RIDERS • Thursday, August 6th : Buses will leave the school at 2:15 • Friday, August 7th: Buses will leave the school at 2:15 • Monday, August 10th: Buses will leave the school at 2:30

  11. Money • All money sent to school should be sent in a sealed envelope and should include the following information: child’s name, teacher’s name, the amount, and what the money is for. Please pay for lunch, pictures, etc. with separate checks or cash. These procedures reduce the chance of misplaced money.

  12. Homework Procedures • 4th graders will have homework Monday – Thursday. Homework is expected to be turned in the following day. • Students will read for 15 minutes and then fill in the reading log.

  13. Daily Behavior Report • At the top of the homework sheet, you will receive daily information about your child’s behavior. Any infractions will be indicated with an “X” in the appropriate box. Please sign and return this report daily.
