Welcome to 3rd Grade!

Go Bears!

New and Returning Loma Families, 

Welcome to 3rd Grade! I am looking forward to meeting you and welcoming you into the Bear Family! Third grade is my absolute FAVORITE grade to teach and I am so excited to begin this adventure with your child. Please keep reading for important first week details...

• School begins on Thursday, August 19th at 8:20am.
• Our first day will be a minimum day, with dismissal at 12:30pm. 
• On our first day of school, please have your child bring a labeled water bottle and a hearty snack.
• Dismissal can often be a confusing time for students when they do not know their after-school plans. Please send me an email or a written note letting me know if your child will be riding the bus home. This step will help me get your child on the school bus before it departs! The school bus leaves shortly after dismissal, and knowing my students' plans in advance helps keep things calm and orderly. 
• Our second day of school, Friday, will be a full day with dismissal at 2:45pm. Students should bring a labeled water bottle, a snack, and a lunch. 
• Our school supply list can be found here. These are voluntary donations and are not required, but I sincerely appreciate any donations you can make to our classroom needs. Thank you!
• Please feel free to email me with any questions and/or concerns you may have. You can reach me at m.bowen@loma.k12.ca.us
• Please complete this Student Form as soon as possible. 
• Tell your 3rd grade BEARS that I can't wait to see them!
