* Parents can keep track of missing work and daily behavior by checking the student’s agenda. Please stay informed by checking your child’s agenda and homework every day.
* Agendas and Teacher Web are tools all 5th grade teachers use to enable you to keep track of your child’s daily class work and important announcements. Please utilize these tools. Teacher Web can be accessed by visiting the school’s website at www.wcschools.com, or by going directly to www.TeacherWeb.com.
* We hope you will encourage your child to use his/her time in school wisely. Organization is the key to success in fifth grade. Help us by teaching your child how to be organized. Make sure students have school supplies replenished throughout the school year.
