Hello 2nd Grade!

Hello, my name is Mrs. Steinhilber and welcome to my class!


A little bit about me: I am a Kouts graduate. After high school, I attended Purdue University North Central. Fun fact - I student taught in 2nd grade here at Hebron Elementary in the same room that I currently teach in!! This will be my 17th year at Hebron. I have taught in 3rd grade, 1st grade, and 2nd grade.

I am married to Mr. Steinhilber who also teaches here at Hebron and is the head varsity boy's basketball and baseball coach. We have three sons: Malachi is in 6th grade, Isaiah is in 2nd grade, and Xavier is 3 and attends Kingdom of Kids daycare. Needless to say, most of my spare time is spent at various sporting events cheering on my husband or my kids.

This will be a positive year for your child as we build on past successes and learn new things in second grade! With home and school working together, your child’s academic and social skills will become even stronger throughout the year. Here is some important information about our class.

1) Students will be dismissed to our classroom around 8:10. On late start Wednesdays, children are dismissed to the classroom at 8:20.

2) Each day your child will bring home 2 folders. The gold folder will have graded papers and important notes or memos in it. The red folder will have any homework that needs to be completed. Both folders need to be returned daily. Any notes that you want me to see can be put in the gold folder. Mrs. Russell, our aide will empty out these folders the first thing in the morning so I will be sure to get any notes that you put in the gold folder for me to see.

3) Homework will be given out Monday – Thursday. Each night your child will need to complete phonics worksheets, math worksheets, and about ten minutes of reading. Please support and talk with your child about the importance of completing those assignments.

4) P.E. is every Monday and Wednesday. Please see that your child is dressed for comfort and safety (comfortable clothes, shorts or pants for girls).

5) Lunch for 2nd grade this year is at 10:45. Lunch prices are $10.25 for the week or $2.05 per day. Milk is .$55. When you send in lunch money, it would be appreciated if it is in an envelope labeled with your child's name and the purpose for it (we do collect money a few times during the year for various purposes).

I look forward to working with you and your child this year! If you have any questions or concerns, you may send a note in with your child, leave a message at 996-4771 ext.253, or send an e-mail to: steinhilberm@hebronschools.k12.in.us
