Does homework have to be done nightly?

Yes - HW is crucial to reenforce the skills taught that day or 
spelling/reading skills.  If it is an extremely busy night, you 
may use one 
of the provided homework passes, but a parent needs to sign.

Can I send in a birthday snack?

Yes - you may send in either cupcakes, cookie cake, or something easy to pass out (NO cake).  We will serve during snacktime.
