Dear Parents,

Welcome to second grade! We are thrilled about this school year!  The second grade team looks forward to a great academic year.

We continue to look forward to working with you and your child this school year and helping him/her to achieve his/her full potential.  As a parent, you can do a great deal to help your student succeed. Here are some strategies that can be used through the year:

• Encourage your child to do his or her homework on a regular basis.  Provide a regular place and time to do homework.
• Have your child show you his or her work and explain to you what he or she has been doing in class.
• Encourage your child to read daily.
• Encourage your child by explaining that you believe that he or she can succeed through trying and working hard.

Class rules and procedures:  Class rules, rewards, and consequences are posted in the class.   Students are expected to adhere to all rules daily.

Homework:  Homework is given Monday – Thursday.  Please check homework projects and return  by the due date.  Homework should be completed by students with parents help.

Notices and parent information:  Please read all notices that are sent home.  Please fill out all forms in BLACK ink and return as soon as possible.

We are thrilled about this school year and its potential for helping your child develop strong knowledge and skills.  If you have any questions or concerns at any time during the year, please feel free to contact your child’s teacher by phone at 404-802-3950.  The school secretary will take a message and your child’s teacher will return your call at their earliest convenience.
