How can I help my child?
At Home
*Provide them with a safe, focused learning space to complete homework.
​
*Make sure they come to school well rested and prepared to learn.
​
*Encourage daily reading and ask your 3rd grader questions about what they are reading.
​
*Ask them about school and provide help when they ask for it or reach out to me if you need additional support.
(Watch videos for homework help on the academics page.)
​
At School
*Communicate with Mrs. Skogstad!
*Come read to our class or teach us something you know.
​
*Volunteer to help with a school wide event like our Pumpkin Carnival, Ice Cream for Books or our Walk-a-thon or join the PTA.
​
*Attend some of our family nights:
-Culver's Fundraisers
-Rollerskate Nights
-Family Movie Nights
