Welcome to the first grade page!
At North Bend Elementary School, first grade is a magical year! This is when most students first learn to read and write independently. For this to happen, a team effort by parents and staff is essential. We are offering the information on this page to help in the collaborative effort. Some of the links are focused on activities that students can do independently. Others are ones that can give suggestions to parents who are seeking information on helping their child succeed in school.
Please feel free to contact your child's teachers by either the email link below, by calling the school office and leaving a message, or by note. We look forward to working with you to further your child's education.
