    Welcome to Mrs. Sinkaus' 5th Grade Reading Class Website 

    First day of school for the new year is: Wednesday, September 6! My room number is 505. It is the 4th room on the

    right-hand side of the 5th grade hallway. The bell rings at 8:40 for homeroom. All of the teachers will be out in the

    hallway to greet students and direct them to the proper homeroom class. I look forward to meeting you!

    Uniform Policy

     

    Students are required to wear the usual khaki or navy blue shorts or pants. Any Riverside spiritwear or Riverside

    uniform shirts are acceptable. Hoodies ARE permitted this year. 

     

     

    Water Bottles

     

    Students should bring a water bottle, as there is a refillable water station located in our hallway. A big issue that

    has developed is students not bringing a water bottle and asking teachers or the nurse for a cup. Please make

    sure they have a labeled water bottle to prevent this issue!
