Frequently Asked Questions

Lunch and Breakfast

* The price of lunch this school year is $2.55.

* Breakfast is free for everyone.

Snack Time

* We have "snack time" from 3:15-3:30.

* Students need to bring a snack from home.

Attendance

* Please remember to send in a note whenever your child returns from an absence. A form is available on the division website. It is not mandatory to use that form, but it is helpful. Parent notes are accepted for the first ten excused absences.

* Please note that Perfect Attendance is defined as being present in school for the ENTIRE school day with no absences, either excused or unexcused, and no tardies or early dismissals.

Medications

* If a student requires medication during school hours, school personnel must have a physician's order and written permission from the student's parent or guardian. Any medicine must be in its original container and delivered to the school nurse by a responsible adult. Please do not send medicine to school with your child.

* Non-prescription medication may be administered by the school nurse ONLY with written permission from the parent or guardian.

Volunteers

* I will send home a "Volunteer Form" in your child's orange folder.

* I will also need parent chaperones on field trips. This is generally on a first come/first served basis since I often get more volunteers than I have slots. (Unfortunately, siblings/other children are not permitted to come along on field trips.)

Classroom Parties

* For each classroom party. I will send home a sign-up sheet for food/supplies. I also ask for volunteers to help out at each party.

** No food items (other than packed school lunches/snacks) are to be brought to school on the bus.

** Food items must be transported to school by an adult.

* If you would like to send in something for your child's birthday, I encourage you to consider non-food items as an alternative to food items. Kids love special pencils, stickers, bubbles, erasers, small toys, etc.
