Homework
Dismissal
A note is required if your child is being dismissed early, going home om a different bus or going/not going to aftercare. Please do not send changes in a child's dismissal routine through email! A note must be sent in to school.
Absences
If your child will be absent from school, please contact the Health Office at 471-1800. If you would like to arrange to have your child's work picked up or sent home with a sibling, please contact the Main Office at 471-1800. State law requires that a child must have an absence note upon returning to school.
Snack
Please send your child in with a snack and drink every day. In the event of a classmate's birthday, your child will have the choice to have the birthday treat or the snack they brought to school for snack that day.
Recess
All students must wear sneakers on the playground. Also, please be sure to dress your child in weather appropriate attire (i.e. pants, coat/jacket,etc.)
