Welcome to the 2012 - 2013 school year!

Dear parents and students, I am so excited for the new school year to begin! Just a few reminders for the classroom: 1. Bring a water bottle when it is HOT! 2. Label all of your supplies. 3. Bring a positive attitude to school! The first week of school will primarily consist of getting to know each other . We will also be going over classroom, hallway and school rules. Doing neat work is expected in 3rd grade and I will be modeling the kind of work that is acceptable. Learning things together will be the focus for the first week. With that in mind the rest of the year should go smoothly! I can't wait to get to know you better! Mrs. Staffileno
