Welcome to 2nd Grade
My name is Ms. Warshawsky, and I would like to take this opportunity to let you know that your child has been placed in my homeroom class 2A (Room 9). As you know, at Cedar Hill Prep, the children have specialized teachers.
Ms.Turcios will be teaching your child Math and Science and I will be teaching Language Arts and Social Studies. The curriculum (Science, SS, Math, and Language Arts) will be the same for both Second Grade classes. Both Ms.Turcios and I are excited to be embarking on this journey with your child. Across all subject matter, the curriculum is engaging and participatory, and allows your child’s natural curiosity and creativity to flourish. In the following pages, I have provided detailed information about supplies, lunch, snack, arrival and dismissal, and more. Please be sure to read through it all.

Arrival/Dismissal Procedures
School teachers/staff will welcome your child and show him/her to the right classroom. If your child is enrolled in before care, you will drop your child through the side door under the portico (the area with the red pillared structure). This door opens into the lunch room. Before care staff will let your child in. At dismissal, you will pick your child up from under the portico (the area with the red pillared structure) between 2.50pm and 3.00pm. If your child is in aftercare, please go to the main door. The receptionist will then call for your child.

Your child will have the 4 core subjects everyday - These are Language Arts, Math, Social Studies and Science. Second Grade will have lunch at 11.30am and recess at 12pm everyday.
