Information on 2018-2019 class assignments
Hello Tenney families, this is Mary Beth Donovan with some end-of-the year information. Report cards will be handed out Friday and your child's teacher for next year will not be listed on the card. Instead, you'll see that the student ID number has been highlighted. Please take note of that number, which most of our students know as their lunch number. The last week of July, we will make a connect ed call to tell you class lists have been posted on our school web page. You'll need to know your child's student ID number to find his assignment. as we will not list student names. Also, Friday is a full day of school, lunch provided, and we will also host Move Up assemblies by grade levels, not by individual classrooms. And, thank you for remembering that Friday is the last day to pick up any medicine from our nurses' office. We cannot hold medication over the summer. Thank you for your understanding and support. We look forward to sharing the last few days of the school year with our students. Hola familias Tenney, esta es Mary Beth Donovan con información de fin de año. Las libretas de calificaciones se entregarán el viernes y el maestro de su hijo para el próximo año no figurará en la tarjeta. En cambio, verá que el número de identificación del estudiante ha sido resaltado. Tome nota de ese número, que la mayoría de nuestros estudiantes conocen como su número de almuerzo. La última semana de julio, haremos una llamada conectada para informarle que las listas de clase se han publicado en la página web de nuestra escuela. Tendrá que saber el número de identificación de estudiante de su hijo para encontrar su tarea. ya que no enumeraremos los nombres de los estudiantes.
Además, el viernes es un día completo de clases, se ofrece el almuerzo y también organizaremos asambleas de Move Up por niveles de grado, no por clases individuales. Y, gracias por recordar que el viernes es el último día para recoger cualquier medicamento de la enfermería. No podemos mantener la medicación durante el verano.
Gracias por su comprensión y apoyo. Esperamos compartir los últimos días del año escolar con nuestros estudiantes. |

We cannot store any medications during the summer and anything left behind will be discarded. 2. Fun Days are Wednesday and Thursday.
