Kindergarten Family Tips

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

BUS TAGS

Kindergarten students must wear their bus tag on the bus EVERYDAY!

The first time your child forgets or misplaces their bus tag, we will send them home with a temporary tag that must be returned the next day.

The next time your child forgets or misplaces their bus tag, you will be called and asked to bring it to school.

If bus tags are lost or destroyed, there is a $2.00 replacement fee.

We suggest that you and your child get in the habit of putting the bus tag in their book bag as soon as they get home so you can find it easily in the morning.

Agenda Books & Folders

Agenda books and folders must be checked nightly and come to school everyday.

We often put important information in them and your child LOVES to share their work.

Replacement Agendas $2.50 (if available) Replacement Folders $2.00

Transportation & Absentee Notes

Changes in afternoon transportation must be written and signed by the child's legal guardian. You can write it in the agenda book or send a note in the folder. Teachers check the folder and agenda EVERY MORNING!

Absentee notes must be sent in the the day your child returns to school (in the agenda or folder) OR can be sent in using this link: http://deerpark.nn.k12.va.us/absence.html

Dress Code

ONLY tennis/athletic shoes may be worn to school per the contract you signed. This is for safety reasons. Sandals, flip flops, and boots may NOT be worn at any time. On rainy or snowy days, rain/snow boots may be worn to school, but a change of shoes must be sent in their backpack.
