 Homework for Parents 
The teachers at River Bend want to ensure that your child's transition to middle
school goes well. Working closely with parents is significantly i mportant for your chi ld’s success
i n school. Therefore, I would like to ask you to take a few minutes to complete this homework
and help me get to know your child better. Do not hesitate to express any questions or concerns
you may have as we begin a new school year. If you would prefer to email this i nformation
back to me instead of completing this paper, please feel free to do so. I greatly appreciate
your help in building a home-school relationship that will best support your chi ld. I look forward
to getting to know both you and your child as we create a successful school year in 6 t h grade.
Thanks! 
