become familiar with your students Agenda to help them develop the necessary
planning and organizational skills.
Hopefully, we will offer opportunities for field trips to enrich and expand the curriculum.
We will attempt to schedule these to interfere as seldom as possible with other classes
and will inform all teachers. We need parents to accompany students on our field trips,
and hope any of you that have pertinent skills or information will act as guest speakers
for our classes. During Curriculum Night there will be a sign up sheet for various
classroom and field trip volunteer activities. When acting as a chaperone, you will need
to go through the background check through the APS web site. We need to have parent
help, so please know that you can still be a part of your childs school experience.
The grading scale is EMS policy: A=90-100
B=80-89
C=70-79
D=60-69
F=59 or below
Please check Synergy often to keep updated on your childs progress. You will get
additional information about the system at a later date.
Requests for extra credit assignments are discouraged. The assigned work is adequate
for any students grade. Assignments with low grades (Below 77%) can be redone for
additional credit, as long as they were complete when submitted.
Students are expected to be respectful and ready to work. If a student displays the
behaviors espoused in the School Wide Positive Behavior Support, success will surely
follow! Since we are Eisenhower Generals, we reach for the stars by displaying
behaviors that reflect Safety, Teamwork, Attitude (positive), and Responsibility. (Please
see the agenda for more information). Problems will be dealt with on an individualized
basis ranging from student and parent conferences, notes in the agenda or an e-mail,
time out, and/or office referrals.
Supplies: Binder, (1.5 or larger to stay in classroom), tabs for binder (8 or more),
folder for homework and projects, pens (different colors to edit/grade), pencils, lined
paper, highlighter, jump drive (4GB or larger, to be used for all classes).
Resources: Quizlet: https://quizlet.com/join/xPTRPpgdn to sign up for practice options

Curriculum Night is September 8th, and I hope to see each of you on that night. We
look forward to a productive, enriching, and exciting new school year.
Sincerely,
Lorraine Q. Blakely
