GRADES 2-5--Parents and Families, We are pleased to share that the students can now use IXL at home for extra practice. Details on how to log in will be in your child's bookbag today. IXL is an online learning hub. Students can access the tutorials and continue
independent learning at home. Parents can rely on IXL videos as an additional resource for
supporting their child. THIS IS NOT FOR A GRADE. Access will allow you to work with your child at home and view Math, Science, Social Studies, and ELA tutorials/videos at home. If you have questions/concerns, please contact your child's teacher.

Attendance
Attending school each day and being on time to school are extremely important to a student’s academic development and achievement. Every day a student is in school is an opportunity to learn, build relationships, and access needed support.Too many absences can cause children to fall behind and make it harder to learn to read. Students are expected to attend school at least 95% of the time. During a 180-day school year, that means students should miss no more than nine days. Each parent/legal guardian is responsible for regular and punctual attendance of any child in their charge within the compulsory age for school attendance. If possible, please try to schedule appointments after school or on Teacher Workdays when students are not in school.
If your child is sick, please send a note. It's recommended that students be symptom free for 24 hours for most illnesses or by the doctor's return date. Medical notes are recommended, especially for consecutive absences. Please contact the school if you have questions or concerns. Mrs. Rogers and Mrs. Shull can assist you. We're here to help!
