FAQ

Check the homework section of this web site for further 

information. On rare occasions, if we have a test, a special 

assembly or trip, there will be no homework, otherwise, 

assume there is. If your child forgets their folder please 

read a book from home. They may make up the homework the next day.

Due to our school policy, no edible treats may be brought in toschool to 

celebrate birthdays. At OHS, we have a growing 

population of students with severe food allergies. Ingesting  the wrong 

food could even be fatal to some students. For the safety and protection 

of all our children, please do not send in food for parties in school. You 

may send in a non-edible treatsuch as stickers, pencils, pads, or books. 

Or we can arrange for you to make a craft with our class, or share a favorite

 book. Contact me with your suggestion and we will work together to make it happen! 

Are there opportunities to volunteer in

the classroom?

Yes, I often look for parent volunteers for special projects, 

field trips or for on going activities. If you are interested in 

helping drop me a note! Field trips always require help in the

 form of parent chaperones. I try to share the wealth and give

 every interested family a chance to chaperone in rotation. If I 

cannot find enough chaperones for a particular trip you may 

be able to go on a second trip with us.

If you would like to serve as a Mystery Reader, or share a special

talent, custom or tradition, please email me.

If your child is sick, please call the school to report that your 

child will not be in school that day. You may leave a message 

if the answering machine picks up. A note is required when your

 child returns to school. This needs to be done even though you 

have called school to report your child's absence. Absences are 

tallied and recorded on report cards.
