I have high expectations for all students. I do not expect every assignment to be perfect, but I do expect each assignment to reflect your child's best effort. I challenge students to incorporate their own ideas, beliefs, and creativity into each activity.

Conduct Grade Policy: As a third grade team, we determine a student's conduct grade based upon the number of marks on their behavior check sheet each 4 1/2 weeks.
S (Satisfactory) = 0-6 marks N (Needs Improvement) = 7-10 marks U (Unsatisfactory) = 11 or more marks
A TIP folder will be sent home every Thursday. Materials in the folder need to be reviewed, signed by a parent, and returned the next day. Please also make sure you initial your child's weekly behavior checklist.
