Yay!! We just completed our first week of school and they all did great. Many more exciting times to come.
3. Next week we start homework. Homework will start Tuesday. I will post Math homework here if there is any and phonics and reading for the week on Tuesday. Phonics spelling books will go home Tuesday and must be brought back on Friday for homework check and will be needed for that following Monday. First Spelling test and Grammar test is next Friday. Reading comprehension to be announced on a sooner date.
Today we had our first mass together. They mostly did a great job, especially since it was their first time as a class going to church. Don't forget to go to Church Sunday with your child and practice the routines we do in church.
Tuesday we are starting with spelling words and reading.
Please bring in a 1 gallon size ziplock bag with your child's name on it by Tuesday Sept. 7. They will be taking decodable reading books every week to read at home and return back to school. More information on this to follow.
A few reminders:
1. St. Therese is a NUT FREE SCHOOL - We have snacks everyday and lunch everyday but half days - please remember to bring in NUT FREE snacks/lunch - AND - NUT FREE TRACES snacks/lunch. Sometimes food is produced in a factory where it may contain nuts, please make sure it doesn't. Thank you. Make sure your child's water bottle is labeled. If it is a twist off, please pre open it for them.
2. I've noticed that some children have been getting "simply gourmet" lunch and want to take leftovers home, which is fine with me. If you can, please bring a bag for them to carry it in so it will be easy for them.
Make sure your child's water bottle is labeled. If it is a twist off, please pre open it for them.

5. This was sent out on parent square the other day:
If your student is a busing student (Roxbury/Hopatcong/Netcong/Stanhope) THEY WILL ride home on the bus daily, UNLESS A NOTE IS SENT IN to the Homeroom Teacher, indicating that they will NOT utilize the BUS (that day, or going forward). Without a note, students will be put on their scheduled bus.
Looking forward to seeing everyone on Tuesday. Enjoy your Labor Day Weekend.
