Parent/ Teacher CommunicationIt is in your childs best interest that we work together with regard to his/her education. We will keep you informed of your childs progress in our classes through the use of the weekly Rhino Responsibility Card, the planner, and email messages or phone calls home. Students are responsible for having a parent sign the Rhino Responsibility card every Tuesday night and returning it every Wednesday. Students who do not return a signed Rhino card by Wednesday, may earn a mark on the card or another consequence. 1616Planners $3 from RylanderReview with your child nightlyVoice mail/ e-mail to/from teachers(48 hr. response time)Tuesday FoldersReview all Graded PapersSign necessary forms and return to homeroom teacher the next day.Return on Wednesday with signed Responsibility CardConference time is 9:35-10:305th Grade Websitehttp://staff.katyisd.org/sites/rre5
