WELCOME
Dear Parent:
I want to welcome you and your child to my class. You will receive regular communication from me, and know that I am happy to talk with you anytime. You can e-mail me at vickie.beggs@cobbk12.org. Your can call me at the school at 770-578-7936. I will return your call as soon as possible.
If you were unable to come to "Sneak a Peak", I look forward to meeting you soon. As for now, there are a few things you need to know. One is that your child may bring a healthy snack daily. All second graders NEED a snack. We have discussed in class examples of healthy snacks to bring. You can also send a juice box with snack;just please, avoid sending in any juice that is "red". Why? It seems that juices with red coloring are the only ones that STAIN our carpets.
Your child will eat lunch daily at 11:05-11:35. You are WELCOME to come and join them for lunch. There is no need to call ahead. Your child will give you an "ear to ear" smile when you "surprise" them by coming for lunch!
It is very important that I have 3 emergency numbers (relatives/neighbors) including your home or cell number. This is an issue of "child welfare". Remember that to change your child's "usual" transportation, YOU MUST SEND A NOTE!!!! The office will not accept phone calls to change your child's transportation from school. They have to have a written note.
As far as supply needs, our classroom always needs pencils, tissues, hand sanitizer, and glue sticks. You can send these ALL year long. Other things like scissors, plastic bags, and baby wipes are great also.
Your second grader will have homework each night, except Fridays. Please make sure that your child gets at least 10 hours of sleep, get ready for school the night before, leave all library books in their bookbags, have a nutritious snack, and READ to your child daily.
Thanks.
Mrs. Beggs
