Welcome to Ms. Tzoumas' 1st Grade!

Meet the teacher: Hello and welcome to first grade! I am very excited to be entering my 4th year at St. Christopher School. I received my B.A. in elementary education with a content focus in English as a Second Language from UIC. I received my Master's in Leadership at Concordia University. I taught for several years in public schools and will pursue a career in administration in the near future.

Notes:

Students go outside for recess, weather permitting. Please make sure they dress accordingly. On days that it is raining or cold, we will be allowed to use the gym, only if your child has gym shoes. On that note, please allow them to bring an old pair of gym shoes to leave at school in their cubby or they can leave them in their backpacks and bring them back and forth. 

Everyday your child will bring home a green folder with homework and important notes. Please make sure to check their folders and return any papers that require a signature.

Every Friday your child will bring home their blue Friday Folder with classwork, homework, and tests they have done throughout the week. Please keep the work and send the Folder on the following school day. 

We will have snack day every day. Please send your child to school with a healthy snack. 

We will use Class Dojo to monitor student behavior. You will receive an invitation to sign up during the first week of school so please do so right away. This is a great form of communication and instant feedback on how your child's day is going in school.
