4th Grade Policies and Procedures

COMMUNICATION

- Email communication with teachers is preferred and the easiest way to keep in contact.
- Sign up for PowerSchool in order to remain aware of your child’s grades and missing assignments.
- Please send in a written note or email for transportation changes. Any transportation changes must be made by 1:45. If we do not have a note of a change, children will be sent home their normal way.
- Students are unable to be checked out after 1:45.
- After an absence, please send in an excuse note within 3 days to avoid the absence being entered as an unexcused absence.

- Birthdays: Please refrain from sending in invitations unless the entire class is invited. Birthday treats can be given during your child’s designated lunch time. If you would like to bring in a treat, please make sure to check with the teacher for allergies. Treats must be store bought and include a list of ingredients.
- Snacks/Water: Students will be given time to enjoy their one healthy snack each morning. Snacks should also not be shared with other students. Water bottles are allowed in the classroom.
- Cell phones are to be stored in backpacks and turned off during instruction.

- Classwork is expected to be completed and turned in on time.
- Please make sure you are monitoring grades using PowerSchool frequently and adhering to the school-wide grading policy.
