What do students need for Second Grade?

You will need at least 2 #2 sharpened pencils. You will need a 
healthy snack and a lunch or money to buy hot lunch. A Backpack 
(preferably without the wheels that run over my toes!) is also 
required.
I have pencil cases, crayons, a homework folder and all your 
books ready to go!
Students should dress in layers or bring a sweater/sweatshirt 
because Ms. J. leaves the window open all year!!! Sometimes it's 
very HOT sometimes it's a tad CHILLY.

What is a healthy snack?

Students are asked to only bring healthy snacks for our morning 
snack time. 
Ideas for healthy snacks are: cheese and crackers, goldfish 
crackers, pretzels, yogurt, fruit, vegetables, and fruit juices 
or water.
Sugary snacks and chips can be enjoyed at lunch time not snack 
time.

What do you mean Chocolate Chip Cookies were a mistake?!

Ruth Wakefield created the Chocolate Chip Cookie by accident- 
thus the chocolate chip cookie was a great mistake! Which is why 
we always say: "Mistakes can be good..."
See the links page to get further details and the history of the 
Chocolate Chip Cookie.

Chaperones and drivers are needed for field trips during the 
year. 
Volunteers are also needed for centers and special activities 
during the month.

When do students buy lunch tickets?

Student lunch cards are updated daily. Please be sure to send 
payment in an envelope with your child's name and classroom 
number clearly printed on the outside. Students will be asked to 
place the envelopes on the blue chair in the classroom to send to 
the office in the morning.
