Homework/Planner information: When your child brings home their planner I am having them write the "Behavior Color" they finished the day with. Green means the student had a good day. Yellow means they had one official "Warning". White means the student lost some recess time due to his/her behavior. Red is an email/note/call home to a parent. I will stamp my RED STAR shaped stamp on the day in the planner to confirm they have the homework information completed correctly. You may initial their planner to assist me in checking their planners. Feel free to write notes in their planners to communicate with me. You may also email me, too.
