To help your child carry messages, schoolwork, and information to and from school, you are asked to provide a regular size backpack. Please do not send backpacks with wheels. Students will be given a Backpacks “BULLDOG folder” for me to send notes and information to you and for you to send homework, notes, etc. to me. Please have your child remove the notes and papers each day from the backpack and the BULLDOG folder to share with you. BULLDOG Folders need to be returned to school every day! Birthdays are special occasions for young children. If your child wishes, he/she may bring in a treat to share with the class. We will eat birthday treats during our snack time. We love cookies, Birthdays brownies, donut holes and other easy to eat snacks. Take-home treat bags are also a wonderful idea! Please avoid sending in ice cream, cakes, cupcakes (mini cupcakes are fine) and drinks. We will celebrate summer birthdays as half-birthdays. Also, we do not pass out birthday invitations in the classroom. Every month I will send home a Scholastic Book Club Catalog for you and your child to look over. These clubs offer wonderful books at reduced prices---what a great way to build your home library! Book Orders In addition, our classroom earns free books and educational videos for every student order. If you choose to order books, please make the check payable to Scholastic Books, or look for information regarding online ordering! Breakfast A school breakfast is served every morning from 8:30-8:50 am. The fee for breakfast is $1.35 per day or $6.75 for a week. Bulldog Bucks will be utilized to recognize students for exhibiting good behavior, and following our school rules of Be Ready, Be Respectful and Be Responsible. Gold/Honey Tags can be used to Bulldog Bucks purchase Bulldog Bucks (25 gold tags=1 Bulldog Buck), and once a month, students can use their Bulldog Bucks to purchase items from our school store (BeeMart), including pencils, erasers, water bottles, T-shirts, etc.
