General Information About 4th Grade
Birthdays: Birthdays are always fun and a reason to
celebrate. If you are going to provide lunch, please notify me two days
in advance, so that I can notify the cafeteria staff. Cookies, cakes, and
cupcakes are always welcome, but please provide forks and plates, as I do not
have these items available all the time.
Book Orders: I order from Troll Book Club every other month
starting in October. We will be having the St. James Book Fair the end of
August.
Dress Code: Please study the handbook carefully regarding
the St. James dress code. Important
reminders:
1. Fake Nails are not appropriate at school.
2. Nail polish is best left for weekends and family gatherings.
3. Dangling earrings and other jewelry can be a safety hazard during recess and PE. Christian jewelry only PLEASE.
4. Please watch the length of your child's shorts and skirts. Appropriate length is at the bottom of the fingertips when the arms are down by the child's side.
5. Belts must be worn if belt loops are evident.
6. Make-up is most appropriate at home, special occasions, or family gatherings, but not at school please.
E-Mail: If you have questions, concerns, or are
confused about an assignment, e-mail me at
Field Trips:
Newsletters: A school newsletter and a classroom newsletter
will go out in the Friday packet every week. Please read both newsletters
so that you can keep abreast of school and classroom activities.
Report
Cards: St. James is on a
nine week grading period, which means report cards are distributed 4 times a
year. Official progress reports also go out 4 times a year, 4 1/2 weeks before
the report cards are distributed. I, as a classroom teacher, also send
out weekly progress reports when needed, so you will know if your child is
turning work in on time, if he/she is participating in the Accelerated Reader
Program, if he/she needs help in certain areas, and if the child is behaving in
his/her classes.
4th
Grade Masses: All 4th grade Masses will be
followed by a short social in the classroom with treats and fellowship.
For those who need to plan ahead, here is our schedule.
Book Club: We meet 4 times a year to discuss and savor BOOKS, BOOKS,
BOOKS! Parents are always invited to
join us! Here is the schedule for Book Club:
