If you don't find the answers to your questions here, please let us know.
How do I contact the school? You can call the front office at (469) 633-3850 and speak with our awesome Sonntag Receptionist.
What are the school hours? The doors open at 7:20 am for the children to enter the school. At 7:45 am the school day begins. Please make sure your child has entered the building with enough time to get to class before 7:45 am to avoid tardiness. The bell rings to go home at 3:05 pm.
How does arrival work? All prek students will be dropped off in the back drive using the lane closest to the school building. Students will walk through the Pod 2 doors and walk to their classrooms. Older siblings go through the Pod 2 doors with Prek siblings and go to their classrooms.
How does dismissal work? All students are given a bright sign to fill out and place on your windshield if they are being picked up through the PREK car line in the front drive of the school. If you have changes with how your child will be picked up please call the front office by 1:00.
Car riders - Older siblings will be walking to their younger siblings in the cafeteria and stay with that teacher. They will get picked up in the PREK car line. The third lane away from the building is to be used to pass the line you do not need to be in. Please be courteous and use blinkers to help with the flow of traffic.
Walkers - Your child will be walked out the cafeteria doors, with one of the Prek teachers, and please make sure you have your license and child's car tag sign with you. All students stay with their grade level. Pick up your child from the teacher on duty. Always use the crosswalk when walking to or from the school with your children. If a student is supposed to ride a bike home alone, please email their teacher giving them permission.
What time is the conference period for the PreK Team? The conference period is from 11:45 -12:30 unless there is a scheduled teacher's meeting. Please contact your child's teacher to set up a time to meet.
What time is lunch? We eat lunch from 10:20am to 10:50am in the cafeteria. Your child can bring their lunch to school daily in a lunchbox labeled with his or her name, or their teacher can order lunch from the cafeteria for them no later than 8:15am.
Is there a snack time? Yes! Please send a healthy snack and water bottle with your child each day. This is especially important during the hot months. Some acceptable snacks are granola bars, string cheese, pretzels, crackers, fruit goldfish, etc. We will eat our snack in the afternoon so easy to open items are appreciated. No candy or foods of minimal nutrition will be allowed for a snack but students can have these for lunch.
What are the recess guidelines? Recess is scheduled for 9:00am to 9:20am and 2:25pm to 2:45pm. Outdoor recess will occur if the temperature is 94 degrees or less or the temperature heat index is less than 100 degrees during the hot months. During Red Ozone Warning days students will not be allowed to go outside. During Orange Ozone Warning days, students will only be able to go outside for 1/2 of the recess time. During the cold months, students will be able to go outside if the real feel temperature and/or wind chill is above freezing.
How will teachers communicate to parents? Your child's teacher will be emailing a newsletter to you every week. Please read this to get important information, important dates, and needed items for the classroom. If you are not receiving these throughout the year, please update your email addresses with your child's homeroom teacher.
How do I send in money? If you need to send in money to your child's teacher for lunch, book orders, etc. please do so online through Online School fees. You can find this information on the FISD Website.
How can I volunteer? To volunteer in any capacity, a new volunteer application must be filled out each year and submitted for that current school year. Please visit the Frisco ISD website at: https://volunteer.friscoisd.org Go to the Parents & Students tab. Under the Most Requested heading, you will see the Volunteer Form on the bottom. We are very excited to have many parent volunteers for room parents, at home projects, field trips, field day, etc. Please let us know in what capacity you would like to volunteer and we will be happy to work with you.
How are birthdays celebrated? We will acknowledge each child's birthday in the classroom, however, treats are not allowed to be distributed to their classmates. *If you want to pass out invitations, please make sure you have enough for all classmates, or all boys/girls.*
Are toys allowed at school? Please help us limit distractions by keeping toys, loose jewelry, playing cards (Pokemon/football/etc.), fidget spinners, and electronics at home. If they show up in class, they will be collected, until the end of the day. If it continues to be a problem, it will be an office referral.
What if my child has food restrictions? You can complete the Frisco ISD Meal Preference and Dietary Resstrictions Form to notify the district of your child's food preferenes. THis will be communicated directly to our cafeteria staff.
