Note(s) to parents and students:

WELCOME BACK!!!

I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you back to school and your child to their Grade 6 year.  I’m looking forward to a productive partnership with you to ensure your child can achieve their highest potential. Thus, at the end of every month, your child will be writing you a parent letter.  Accompanying that parent letter will be my comments and signature that will be sent home.  I kindly ask that you to follow up by writing any comments that you’d like to address with me and a signature. Should the need arise and a follow up is required, once the letter is returned to school, I will either contact you or discuss the matter with your child.

Below you will find things that will assist you with in achieving greater success in class and at home.  View it daily as things change according to instructions provided during class time.  This blog is meant to be another support tool for you to refer back to.  It is a simple overview of what was done in class and what your responsibilities are outside of school.  Assignments and tests will be posted below on a monthly calendar. This blog is meant to help you time mange your school and after school activities.  Remember you will be less stressed out if you have a plan in place and you organize your studies!

Please Note:  If I'm away due to illness or workshops the blog will not be update that day.  The supply will assign work left behind by me and if homework needs to be completed that day, please ensure that it's put into your bag as soon as it's assigned or remind yourself at the end of the day to refer to the homework board in the class.  

I'm looking forward to a fantastic year,

E. Bucci
