A Message From... 
Mrs. Rolfert

 I will do everything to help your child to be successful in class.  Your child will be taught : "what to do" and "how to do it".  This way everyone in class has the best chance to learn, to be successful, and able to give their "personal best" each day.

I ask students to show:  Respect for others, Respect for themselves, and Respect for our environment.

 Remind your child daily to

"BE THE BEST YOU CAN BE!"

   Remind your child to be a good listener by:

  •  staying still,

HOMEWORK

HW assignments may change based on what is accomplished in the classroom each day.  Check your child's planbook for any updates.  New HW assignments will be posted at the beginning of each week.

Homework serves two purposes:

First,  to practice and drill academic skills and complete class work.

Second (sometimes more important), to develop basic organizational skills, to accept responsibility and consequences, to tolerate frustrations, and to make"Right Choices".  All of these skills are needed to grow to be independent, motivated, and successful student.
