Classroom Newsletters

A classroom newsletter is a part of every Monday Packet. Each regular classroom teacher is responsible for creating and publishing a weekly newsletter. These should contain news about up-coming events, spelling words, curriculum information for the next week, homework assignments, and a sprinkling of the good things happening in class. Teachers may find it easiest to use their website as a template for their newsletter and then change the date and information from week to week. Newsletters should not be wordy epistles. Parents will not read them if they are. Items included should be very short and to the point. In order for any communication to be effective, it must be read. Copies of your newsletter should be submitted electronically to Ms. Rhodes by 8:00 AM each Monday.
