What is the best way to reach Miss Vlosky?
Email is the fastest and best way to contact me. My email address is
jvlosky@ci.stamford.ct.us
Calling the school and leaving me a message is also an option as is sending in
a note with your child.
What supplies does my child need for the first day?
Please send your child on the first day of school with as many of the
following things as possible:
o Six (6) folders (labeled with your name and: Homework, Math, Science, Social
Studies, Morning Work and Friday Folder)
o One (1) box of 12 #2 pencils, sharpened please

PLEASE LABEL ALL OF YOUR SUPPLIES. NO PENCIL GRIPS PLEASE. If you wish to
purchase other items for the class we can always use extra anti-bacterial
wipes, Band-Aids, Ziploc baggies (any size), and snacks (crackers, pretzels
etc). Thanks!!!
Does my child have homework every night?
YES! With the exception of Friday I assign homework every night. Homework
assignments are written down in our assignments books every single day
(assignment books are provided by me). Reading must be done every night. There
is a direct correlation between the amount a student reads and the "amount"
of success and education he/she reaches. There
is math most nights as well plus work for ongoing projects.
Can I come visit the classroom?
We will have several occasions throughout the year for parents to visit the
classroom. There are also volunteer opportunities such as Learning to Look and
Junior Achievement where you can work directly with the kids. If you would
like to come in and talk to me please email or call to schedule an appointment
as our schedule is very tight. I look forward to working together and
including all adults who would like to be involved in their child's education.
