Welcome back! Supply List 2015-2016

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Welcome back! I hope you all enjoyed your summer vacation. Unfortunately, it has come to end and it is time to get back to work. This year will present new challenges as we continue the implementation the Common Core Curriculum. This project based and interdisciplinary approach will reflect the skills that our students will need to become college and career ready. It will be our job as teachers and parents to help our children become fully prepared for that road that lies ahead. I look forward to helping pave their paths into their future with your help.

Below you will find some general rules and regulations, as well the school 2015-2016 school supply list. If you have any questions please bring them to the parent orientation meeting on September 8th, 2015 at 7:00PM.

Sincerely,
Mr. Roberto Placido

General Information/School Rules and Regulations:

1. Please sign all papers distributed in the parent packet. You will receive two emergency cards to fill out. Fill out all parts including the mother and father’s name even if you are not living together. Include the following information: phone numbers- including cell #’s, whom to contact in case of an emergency, and remember to fill out the back of each card and sign the bottom. Also, in the parent’s packet is an academic contract, parent’s handbook, Internet usage form, Sept. calendar, photo release, textbook loan, technology usage, HW rubric, a general field trip consent form, and a parent signature sheet for the Handbook. Please complete all forms and return them to me no later than Friday, Sept.13 in the folder you received them in. Please do not return the September calendar, Parent Handbook, and the HW rubric. They are for your own information.

2. All school supplies should also be in by the end of the week.

3. Please cover all soft covered books, preferably with a transparent cover so the books do not rip. If they are broken and you can fix them, please feel free to do so. Please make sure your child’s name is on each book. It is very important to cover the books because the soft-covered books break very easily and pages start to fall out.

4. Check your child’s notebooks, folder and backpack everyday to see what is going on in class, and make sure that he/she has all the necessary supplies.

5. Please send me a note when your child is absent or when you need to pick him/her up early from school. If I do not receive an absence note, your child will be marked illegally absent. If your child is sick for few days try to send someone to pick books needed to make up the work your child has missed. All students are responsible to turn in any assignments missed while they are absent from school. They will be given one or two days to complete these assignments after they return to school.

6. Please read the monthly calendar, the school blog, and the Parent Handbook carefully.

7. Your child should lineup in the backyard in the morning before 8:00 AM. The class will be dismissed each day at 3:00 PM Monday-Friday. Please read the school calendar for any early dismissals.

8. Please make sure that your child is on time for school each day. If your child is late more than two times per quarter, he/she will not be able to receive Honors. In addition, he/she will not be allowed into class without getting a late pass.

9. All students should be in full uniform each day, unless otherwise specified on the blog or in the purple assignment book. That means shoes, socks, sweaters, having the proper haircut (boys), etc. This is all stated in the Parent's Handbook. Good conduct, effort, keeping belongings neat and organized, completing homework and classwork assignments, arriving to school on time, and being respectful to classmates and school staff are other criteria which are evaluated when determining whether a student will receive Honors.

10. Detention is given to any student that breaks school or class rules such as misbehaving in class, not completing homework or classwork, or not signing notes or test papers.

Below please find a list of the supplies your child will need for the school year.
