My goal in assigning class duties or jobs is to teach responsibility, interdependence, procedure, and community. It is my hope that each of my students will gain an appreciation for work and build self-confidence as they learn to care for and maintain our classroom. InshaAllah, I will spend time instructing and rehearsing these duties in class. Please take some time to familiarize yourself and your child with these expectations

at home. As always, please contact me if you have any concerns. Attendance Clerk The attendance clerk is responsible for monitoring student attendance (absent and late) on a daily basis.
