November Newsletter

Dear Parents,

        Hello! Hope all is well with you. I am looking forward to meeting with all of you again on Conference Day later this month. Parent – Teacher Conference Day is Monday, November 24^th from 1:00p.m. – 8:00 p.m. Attached you should find a conference schedule. I have also included your scheduled conference time on your child’s report card.  If you need a translator for your conference please let me know and I will gladly look into finding one for you. Please let me know as soon as possible as it may take time to find and schedule one.

        This Friday your child will bring home their first report card of the school year.  You will find a copy of your child’s report card and a blue insert inside the report card envelope.  The REPORT CARD ENVELOPE AND BLUE INSERT labeled “2^nd Grade Expectations” must be signed and returned to school. Please leave the actual report card at home. This is your copy to keep at home. Also, the folder given at Open House includes a copy of our grading scale. You may want to refer to that as you look over your child’s report card.

        If you look at the “important dates” section of this newsletter you will find that we have many days off this month. The week of November 12^th – 15^th we will NOT have any of our weekly tests. The week is too short for a complete unit. Also, you may want to keep in mind that the monthly projects are due on November 21^st as this is the last day of the month in which we will be in school.

        I have attached a book order this month. This will be the last book order before winter break. If you wanted to order some books for Christmas gifts from Scholastic you should use this order form. They will be back in time to give as gifts for the holidays.

         I look forward to seeing all of you again in a few weeks. As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to stop by, give me a call, or write a note/email. My email address is slazich@pennoyerschool.org

Take Care,

Ms. Lazich
