Welcome to First Grade
For most of our students, this is their first experience of a full day of school. Longer hours, eating lunch at school, recess with many students, are just a few areas thatcan potentially cause stress, not to mention the increased academic demands in the classroom!
Our teachers are well prepared to anticipate potential challenges for students. Forgotten lunches, tears in the morning, difficulty choosing an activity at recess, organizational difficulties, are handled with a calm, caring approach. We all understand that it may take a few weeks for the students to adjust to the rigors of first grade.
