K3 Classroom Wishlist! 

Back to School Dates: 

Meet the Teacher & Supply Drop Off! August 24th 10am - 2pm

We can't wait to welcome our new Kindergarten students! Please bring your child to visit their new classroom, meet their teacher, and reconnect with old friends while making some new ones. This is a great opportunity to explore the classroom, ask any questions you may have, and drop off your child's school supplies. Bringing supplies ahead of time helps make the first day of school a little easier, so there's no need to carry everything in on the first morning. We look forward to seeing you and your family!

Join our class Remind App! 

To sign up, text @mcguire-26 to the number 81010 

Remind is a great way for us to stay connected through a messaging app similar to text messaging. I use it to send class-wide announcements and reminders about school events, tag days, holidays, field trips, and other important classroom updates.

While parents are welcome to use Remind to communicate with me, I ask that it not be used for last-minute dismissal changes or changes to your child's after-school plans. During the school day, and especially at dismissal time, I may not be able to check messages immediately. If a message is sent late in the day, there is a chance I will not see it before your child is dismissed.

To ensure your child's safety, please send any dismissal changes in one of the following ways:

• A written note in your child's folder sent to school that morning
• An email sent during the morning hours
• A phone call to the school office

Please do not rely on Remind for important last-minute messages or emergencies. Thank you for helping us ensure a safe and smooth dismissal for every student!

 Hot Lunch Orders

Hot lunch orders open on the 5th and close on the 25th of every month for the month ahead! Right now, lunch orders are open for August and September! They will close on 8/25. Every lunch comes with a drink. You do not need to purchase a drink separately. You can also just order a drink if your child wants to pack a lunch, but get milk or juice when we go to the cafeteria for lunch. You can use this link to create an account and place your order.
