Absence Policy:  Please contact the school, before 8:30 a.m., to notify the office of your child's absence or tardiness. When the children arrive later than the start time (8:30), please stop by the office to let the secretarial staff know that your child is in the building.      

Birthdays:  If your child would like to celebrate his/her birthday with the class, it would be enjoyed by all! Feel free to send in a simple finger snack (cookies, cupcakes, fruit, etc.), drink and napkins. These can be dropped off in the office by 10:00, the day of the celebration.       

Book Orders:  Book orders will be sent home throughout the year. If you are interested in any of the selections offered by the various book clubs (Scholastic, Troll, Trumpet), please complete the appropriate form(s) and make checks payable to Scholastic Book Club. Send all money and order forms (with your child's name on it) to school on or before the due date.

Dismissal Policy:  Please send in a note, indicating any and all changes to your child's regular, daily dismissal. If the note or message is received mid day, school policy states that we may not be able to accommodate your change in schedule.

Personal Belongings:  Please label all items that belong to your child (i.e.- pencil boxes, books, backpacks, lunch boxes, clothing - especially boots, mittens and snow pants). Items lost or left on the bus can find their owners easier if they are labeled. Thanks!

School Lunch: Full lunch is $2.50 per day (this includes fresh fruit, fresh veggie and milk); milk (without lunch) is $.55 per day. Lunch and milk can be paid in advance. The children are issued a card with the advance amount credited to your child's account.  As milk or lunch is purchased, the amount is deducted from the total.            

School Store:  School store is scheduled for every Wednesday, immediately after lunch and before recess. If your child wishes to purchase any items from School Store, please send in a labeled envelope with your child's name and money amount ( not to exceed $3.00) 

Snack and water bottles: Water bottles are allowed on the tables or sink counters during the warm months. Please label the water bottles and be sure that they have secure lids. The children will have their daily snack in the morning.  Healthy snacks are encouraged, while soda, fruit snacks and candy are strongly discouraged from coming into school.
