General Information
General Information
Due to allergies at Longfellow, all snacks must adhere to our nut free policy. Here is the 2024-2025 snack list. Recommended snacks include fresh or dried fruits & veggies, apple squeezers, fruit snacks, plain/salted popcorn, and pretzels. If you have any questions about snacks, just ask! All snacks must be nut free.
Our class has P.E. on Tuesday & Thursday. Students MUST have gym shoes in order to participate.
Please send in a water bottle for your child to use at school so they can get water throughout the day. They should be able to open and close it independently and "spillproof" water bottles are ideal.

Technology
Kindergarten students will receive an iPad to use for school. It is important that they have a charged iPad and working headphones with a microphone every day. Here are ways we use our iPads:
Seesaw - Seesaw lets students access digital activities where they can listen to directions and use tools to craft responses. It also lets them document physical work and record their voices. This then builds a portfolio that is shared with caregivers.
eBooks - Several eBook tools let kids read books at their level AND listen to high-quality texts they cannot yet read independently, which is great for research projects!
Individualized practice - We have several apps that let us assign individualized activities to students so they can work at their own pace on reading or math skills.

Plan Ahead: Chaperone Background Checks For FIELD TRIPS
A background check is required for anyone who wishes to chaperone on a field trip. This is a one-time process for your entire time in District 97 and District 97 keeps all information obtained during a background check confidential. It can take a while to get an appointment and results take 7-10 business days, so please plan ahead if this is something that interests you!
