Tiger Card
What is the Tiger Card? The Tiger Card is a weekly report that provides a snapshot of your student's performance and behavior in class. It is designed to keep you informed about how your student is doing academically and socially each week.
How It Works:
Distribution: Every Friday, your student will bring home their Tiger Card.
Review: Please take some time over the weekend to carefully review the information on the card.
Sign: After reviewing the card, sign it to confirm that you have seen the report and discussed it with your student.
Return: Ensure your student brings the signed Tiger Card back to school on Monday.
Why is the Tiger Card Important?
Communication: The Tiger Card is an important tool for maintaining open communication between school and home.
Monitoring Progress: It helps you track your student's progress and address any concerns promptly.
Encouragement: Reviewing and discussing the card with your student can encourage positive behavior and academic effort.
Steps for Parents:
Look for the Tiger Card each Friday: Remind your student to give it to you as soon as they get home.
Review the details: Check for notes on academic performance, behavior, and any other comments from the teacher.
Discuss with your student: Talk about what went well and any areas that may need improvement. Praise their successes and provide support for any challenges.
Sign the card: Your signature is required to indicate that you have reviewed the report.
Ensure it is returned on Monday: Help your student remember to bring the signed card back to school.
Tips for Effective Use:
Set a Routine: Establish a regular time each weekend to review the Tiger Card together.
Stay Positive: Focus on positive reinforcement and constructive feedback.
Communicate: If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to your student's teacher.
Parent Volunteers
Parent volunteers in the classroom are truly invaluable! Your assistance with prep, engaging students, and supporting activities enhances our learning environment. If you're interested in volunteering in a couple of months, let me know – your help makes a big difference! Thank you for your enthusiasm and understanding!
Who's Your Hero
WHO'S YOUR HERO? helps 5th-grade girls make confident, healthy choices through weekly after-school sessions covering topics like self-confidence, education, diversity, and nutrition. Values such as respect and integrity are emphasized, aiming for outcomes like self-respect and community service.
5th Grade Band
Band is a 5th-grade privilege, offering students a unique opportunity to develop their musical skills and creativity. Students will be taken out of class during core instruction time to participate in band practice. That said, it is important to note, they won't be excused from the assignments missed during core instruction and must be responsible for making up or independently learning the lessons.
