- Brighouse Library Books- There are a few books that have yet to be returned to the Richmond Public Library. They are overdue, so please return them to the Brighouse location as soon as you can. Let us know if you are unsure of the book your child borrowed and we can double check!
- Splash Learn- We have been using Splash Learn on our school iPads and the children are really enjoying it! It is a fun Math app that has games and challenges that are lots of fun! Please check you child’s homework folder today to see how you can login at home! Currently we are covering the topic of geometry.
Friendly Reminders:
- Socks- With the Winter season in full swing and the expected rain (or snow), we suggest packing an extra pair of socks in your child’s backpack, just in case.
- Scholastic Reading Club– The February Catalogue can be viewed online here. Reminder it is optional to order, but if you do please enter Kindergarten’s class code RC318627 at checkout so that we can receive rewards for our classroom! Thank you in advance for your support.
