FISH - Family Involvement Starts Here
BOOK - Being Organized Obtains Knowledge

FISH BOOKs are a way to organize the things that you need on a daily basis.  Your child will be provided with a 3-ring 1" binder at the beginning of the school year.  Within the binder are 3 clear plastic protector sheets with helpful information for the students and parents.  These are also provided.  In these clear protectors you will find organizational tips, the FISH Creed, the FISH Attitude, Spelling words for the year, genre project due dates for the year, and where you can find more information for homework.  It is the parents responsibility to find a sturdy pencil case and 3 plastic folders to add to the binder.  Please ask to see your child's FISH BOOK daily.  We ask that a parent signs the assignment notebook each weekend.  This ensures the teachers that your child is communicating with you.  The assignment notebook should be completely filled out for every subject area for each day of the week.  If it is not completely filled out, you can click here to see the assignments.
