How do I get in touch with you if I have questions or comments?
Fastest way to reach me is through email. I do my best to return all emails before the end of the school day. My address is mbritto@pleasanton.k12.ca.us, or you can click on the silver mailbox on the home page to link you directly with my email.Back to Top
How do I know my child's nightly homework assignments?
Students are given a homework spiral on the first day of school. This should be kept inside of a spiral binder throughout the school year. The nightly assignments are written by the students in the appropriate boxes. I require that parents review these assignments nightly and sign the bottom of the entry as part of the students' homework.Also, homework assignments are posted on this site by clicking the homework/backpack icon. It is a good idea to check regularly as sometimes I may need to add or delete something from the list.Back to Top
When is my child VIP? What does this entail?
Every student is selected as the VIP for one week during the school year. A calendar can be found inside of your back-to-school night packet. There is also a calendar on the VIP wall for students to view. The calendar is also posted on the announcements page of this website. On the Friday before their VIP week, your child will bring home a VIP newspaper to fill out with information about themselves. This should be brought back on Monday to be displayed along with other items of interest your child would like to share with their classmates (photos, memorabilia, favorites, etc). Please be sure that the items are not valuable or breakable as they remain on the VIP shelf for the week. VIPs also recieve special seating on the couch or the mushrooms chairs during reader's workshop and silent reading time and act as my classroom helper for the week.Back to Top
My child forgot their math workbook. Can we get a printout off the internet?
Yes!! No more running back to school in search of the custodian! Go to the links page from my home page. You will find a link for Scott Foresman Math. Follow the directions and you can print off the same workbook page as was assigned for that night.Back to Top

We'd like to bring our family pet to share for VIP week. What should we do?
Stop by the front office and fill-out a permission form to bring in your pet. Mrs. Sehrt must sign-off on it. Then drop me an email so we can schedule the best day for you to come in. Typically it will be Monday morning right after the bell.Back to Top
