Parent Contact:

 Parents are to check the planner and sign it every evening.  Mrs. Bertucci will stamp or sign the planner each morning making contact with each student and parent daily.  The easiest way to get information to or from Mrs. Bertucci regarding your student is through their daily planner.  However, calling or emailing Mrs. Bertucci will also work.  Please call the school and leave a message or email me at jeni.bertucci@sbpsb.org.  The childs homework and conduct grade should be written in the planner BY THE STUDENT daily as well.

Snack and Birthday Treats:

We eat lunch at 12:45pm, which makes for a long morning.  I allow a healthy snack during the morning to help the kids make it until lunch.  Please only send HEALTHY snacks to school.  The kids will be asked to save unhealthy snacks for lunch time.  No chips, candy, cookies, or complicated, messy snacks.  If your child has a Birthday, however, sweets are allowed.  If you want to send snacks for the entire class this is allowed.  Please send enough for everyone.  We currently have 19 students in our class.

Parent Helpers:

I love parent support and I will be calling on you to help in any way that you can. Please contact me with the times you would be availiable to help out in the classroom or with special projects.
