Welcome to Mrs. Newby's New Bees Class!!!

Welcome to Mrs. Newby's New Bees webpage. Here you will find useful information about everything that is happening in our classroom and school wide. It is important for you to also look at your child's folder daily so that you do not miss out on anything and return any papers that need to be returned in a timely manner. Your child's folder is our communication between home and school.   If you have any questions or concerns, please call me at 318-686-1783 and leave a message or email me at knewby@caddoschools.org and we can set up a conference. No situation is ever too small.  I am available for conferences Tuesday-Friday at 7:00 a.m and 8:30 a.m. or at 3:30 pm.
