Parents’ Support: to reach our goals, the parents are expected:
1. Actively participate with your child in the classroom;
2. Review and complete the home work assignment with your child;
3. Should your child be absent, it is your responsibility to e-mail me in advance so I can e-mail a “Teacher-Parent” hand out to you.
