What is a VIP?

The VIP (Very Important Papers) are an example of your student's work 
through a two week period. It is important that these papers are reviewed 
with your child. The VIP's will go home every other Friday unless notified 
by your teacher.

You can write a message on your child's blue sheet, send in a separate 
note, call the front office, or e-mail me (healya@fultonschools.org) and I
will get back to you as soon as possible.

Sweet Apple Elementary School requires you to send a note with your child 
the day he/she returns to school. If a note is not received, the absence will
be "unexcused".

When can I expect my child to have homework?

Homework will be given Monday through Thursday during the school year.  If
homework is not assigned, students should have "No homework"  written in their
agenda.

Should I send in a snack each day?

Yes!  Please send in a dry, nutritious snack each day.  We have snack around
9:15 each day.

How are student birthdays celebrated?

We do celebrate birthdays at school. Each child is recognized over the
announcements and in the classroom on their special day.  Monthly birthday
snacks will be coordinated by room parents.  When sending in the monthly
birthday snack, please be sure that they are individual servings or are
pre-cut.  These snacks can be delivered to the front desk in the morning. 
Napkins are also helpful!

How will agendas be used in second grade?

Agendas are used to help our 2nd graders prepare for 3rd grade. The students 
are responsible for writing the homework assignments given Monday through 
Thursday in their agenda. They may also be writing important reminders for 
parents, as well as the weekly spelling words,so be sure to look at the agenda
daily.
