Second Grade
Dear Parents and Guardians,
It has been a joy to watch your children learn and grow with us over the past few months. We are so appreciative of all your help in getting them to school on time each day, ready to learn. Please remember to send your child to school every day with their iPad and completed homework. Students should also be spending 10-15 minutes a night reading, as well as practicing their sight words and vocabulary words. Thank you so much for continuing to work alongside us, and we are so excited to see what December brings!
Sincerely,
Ms. Lema, Ms. Warshauer, and Ms. Calder
