WELCOME!

Welcome to the 7th All Stars team! We are thrilled to have this opportunity to communicate our weekly classroom activities and reminders through our blog. We hope you find this tool useful, as each core class will be listing what that core will be focusing on for the week. Due dates will be listed when available.

The First Week- We will be introducing students to classroom rules, expectations, and covering procedures pertinent to the subject. We hope to get to know each one of your students, and begin forming strong, positive relationships with your child. You will be receiving a letter for the team outlining team and school policies. You and your student will need to sign and return the bottom portion of the second page by Friday, August 22nd. The rest is yours to keep as a reference!
