Class Rules Parent Letter

                                                                                                         August 30, ‘11

Dear 1^st Grade Parents,

          Welcome to 1^st Grade!  I am really looking forward to our new school year.  At the beginning of a new year, it is very important for all students to understand the policies and procedures of our classroom.  I will be spending a lot of time explaining and emphasizing our class rules and the resulting consequences for not following our rules.  I will be discussing these in detail with you at Back to School Night (Open House).

          As part of your child’s homework tonight, I would like you to take some time to read over these rules together and discuss them.  Please sign this letter and return it tomorrow in your child’s Homework Folder.  When I receive this back tomorrow, I will know that you have taken the time to discuss our class rules with your child.

          Thank you very much.

                                                                             Mrs. Kondrack
