Assignment Planners

The third-graders took home their planners today for the first time! If you haven't paid for the planner yet, your child will have written a note to bring $5 to do so. Please send it in when possible.

The planner is a handy tool for you to know what we did during the day. It is also a place that we write assignments (anything that is assigned as homework will be circled), highlight special things or needs we have, or communicate anything else.

I talked to the students about this, but please have an adult check it daily and then initial it. I hope that it helps you to know some of our activities for the day. If you have questions about an event, you can ask your kiddo or email/call me to get more information.

Thank you!

The Beginning of the Year



Hello! The first day of school is Thursday, Aug. 24. The first bell rings at 8:15, although we teachers will be outside at 8:00.  But guess what! You don't have to wait until Thursday morning to meet you teacher or bring your supplies! We will be opening the school from 3:30 - 4:00 on Wednesday, Aug. 23 for a Meet and Greet/Supply Drop-Off, and then you are invited to enjoy some ice cream outside from 4:00 - 4:30!

If you cannot make it during the official time, please feel free to email me at urbaniakw@billingsschools.org or drop by the school between the hours of 7:50 - 3:50. I am going to be in the building working on preparing for the school year, and I would really like the opportunity to meet each student and family and organize supplies before the first day.

I am looking forward to our time we will spend together.
