It's almost here....

The first day of school is right around the corner. I have been busy setting up my classroom and prepping for my first week. I got to meet many of you this past Monday, let me just say... THANK YOU! Thank you for having taken the time to stop by and say Hi. Having met most of my kiddos and their parents really made me happy and more at ease, because I know I will get to meet/work with a great group of kids and parents.

As a reminder the first day of school is next Tuesday the 3rd of September. If you are able to donate any of the items listed below (in an earlier post this month) for my class please feel free to drop them off this day or whenever you get a chance. Any items would be greatly appreciated especially by the kiddos since they will be using them throughout the year.

Many parents offered to volunteer in the classroom once school begins, please remember you must be fingerprinted and cleared prior to helping out at school. If you need more information please contact me or the school office.

I look forward to an AMAZING, EDUCATIONAL, FUN school year.

As always if there are any questions or concerns please contact me via email and I will try my best to get back to you right away.

Have a great rest of the day.
See you all soon,

Miss. Maciel

Open house and parent portal

Hi everyone, just wanted to add on a bit more information to the post I made earlier today.

Open house/ Meet the teacher will be on August 26, 2013 from 2:00-5:30pm.
On this day you will be able to drop off any donated items to the classroom teachers, purchase uniforms and get your classroom assignment. There is a slight chance the event will be held in the gym and not the classrooms due to construction, BUT this should be a fun an exciting day no matter the location. As the day approaches I am getting more happy to meet all my future kindergartners and their parents.

Parent portal is a link on the school's website where parents can get important information and news about any up coming events. Please check it from time to time as this button was created for you to stay connected with REACH.

I'm looking forward to meeting many of you at open house on Aug. 26 and once again at the
FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL, September 3, 2013!


Have a great evening,
Miss. Maciel

School supply list/donations

Hello! Hope every ones week is starting out well.
I had a great time supporting my school and Dr.Rentie at the school board meeting last night. I feel so proud to be part of a school that has so much support from our parents and PTO.
After Dr.Rentie's presentation we had a chance to talk a little bit about the new things going on as the school year approaches.
As I get more information about up-coming events I will be sure to post it up here.

For now, my wonderful Kinder team and myself have come up with a list of supplies we would like for our class, if you are able to donate. These items will be used for all students as we use a community approach. Some items we will need throughout the year, please feel free to donate at any time.
Some of the items we will need for our kiddos are:

Crayons

Kleenex

Large pencils (You can find these at CM Supply, Lakeshore, or Staples)

Clorox wipes

Dry erase markers

Individual white boards (can be found at Office Max for $1) 

Large erasers (please no pencil top erasers)

Construction paper
Scissors

Glue sticks

Elmer's glue

Ziploc bags- gallon size and quart size

Baby wipes

Band-aids

Reams of copy paper
Plastic sheet protectors

Once again a big THANK YOU in advance for any items you may be able to donate to our classrooms. 

If you have any questions please feel free to email me at my REACH Email.

Have a great rest of the day,

Miss. Maciel

Slowly but surely...

Slowly but surely my blog is coming together... yaaaaay! I am looking forward to updating it as much as possible to help you get an idea of what is going on in the classroom and in the school. I am looking forward to getting into my classroom to set it up and soon after that meet my students and their parents on August 26, 2013.
Please check back soon for any more updates or important information.


Have a great rest of the day,
Miss. Maciel
