• Welcome to  1st Grade! I am excited to work with your child this year! My name is Mrs. Painter. I have a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education. I am pursing a master’s degree in Instruction and Curriculum. I have worked with students for years. I have been as a substitute, paraprofessional, and  a certified teacher. I love teaching and helping  students learn. The best way to contact me is through Class Dojo or via e-mail.  I will  return messages as soon as possible but within 24 hours. I have attached additional information about our classroom.

    • Grading System

      Grades for each week will be entered into Infinite Campus.  Grades for students in K-3 will be receiving standards-based grades utilizing rubrics.  Below is a brief explanation of standards-based scores:

      1 – Beginning Learner, the student is beginning to understand elements of the standard.

      2 – Developing Learner, the student is developing mastery of the standard.

      3 – Proficient Learner, the student has mastered all of the elements of the standard.

      4 – Distinguished Learner, the student has mastered and exceeded the requirements of the standard.
