Dear Elkhart Families,

It was great to see all of you last night at the carnival.  We really appreciate our families and it was a fantastic time.

I cannot emphasize enough the need for our students to do homework on a nightly basis.  This home practice ensures that we have more time to teach during the class day.  Please support us by checking your student’s homework each night.

Sincerely,

Ron Schumacher, Principal

Dear Elkhart Families,

Homework completion is very important for your child’s success.  Your child’s teacher should communicate their homework expectations so that you can support your child at home.  Please help hold your child accountable for this important part of academic success.  Students in 3^rd through 5^th grade can loose the opportunity to take home ChromeBooks if they do not do homework.

Sincerely,

Ron Schumacher, Principal
