L.I.O.N. Binders 
(Learning Independence and Organization Now)
LION Binders are a way to help keep you, your first-grader, and myself organized throughout the school year. It teaches the students organizational skills and responsibility. In addition, the books are part of my family involvement plan, which helps keep you informed of activities and student progress.
Please be sure your child brings the LION Binder to school EVERY day. Please help out at home by encouraging your child to keep everything organized correctly in the Binder.
