Student ExpectationsBehavior - 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.
Parent ExpectationsWhat 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.
Teacher ExpectationsMy 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.
Conference RequirementsTwo 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.
AttendanceInstruction 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!
Cafeteria MealsBreakfast $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.
TransportationIf 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.
BUS RIDERSThursday, 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
MoneyAll 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.
Homework Procedures4th 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.
Daily Behavior ReportAt 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.
Dress CodesEvery student enrolled in the Douglas
County School System is expected to observe a standard of grooming and dress consistent with the level of formality of the school setting.
Certain items of dress are not considered appropriate and therefore, are not acceptable, and could result in a child having to call parents at home or work to bring more appropriate clothing.
Discipline ProceduresWhen students choose not to follow rules,
or when they do not complete their homework or class work, they will miss part or all of their recess. Please refer to the N.D.E.S Student Handbook for a complete list of school rules and consequences.
