Buses - Please make sure your child is wearing their bus tag every day! This makes it much easier for your child to get to the correct destination. If your child is being picked up after school (instead of riding the bus), a note, e-mail, or phone call must be sent informing the teacher and the office of that change ASAP. Thank you for your help in keeping your children safe!
Health - Please advise us of any specific concerns. If your child has to take any medication or medication must be on hand for field trips (asthma inhaler, Epi-pen, etc.) please contact the front office and complete the necessary paperwork so that the school can administer any medication.
Important Life Changes/Circumstances - Please let me know if there are any major changes in your child’s life that may affect their school life. Remember that I will support your family as best I can.
Birthdays - We will absolutely celebrate your child's birthday at school! We will sing and have a few special things to make their day special. If you wish to send in something extra, only non-food items are allowed. Some suggestions of items to send in would be pencils, crayons, or you can donate a book for the classroom library. We will have a Summer Birthday celebration toward the end of school. However, if you would rather your child celebrate their “un-birthday” or half birthday, please get in touch with me via email.
Shoes - Your child may keep a pair of gym shoes at school if you wish. Not only will they always be here for fitness day, but they will be convenient to have available on those days that boots are worn to school. If you prefer to not to have gym shoes left at school, they can be brought/worn on fitness day. Girls should wear shorts or pants on fitness day.
Absences - Please call the school if your child is going to be absent. If your family is going on a trip, please inform the school office and the teacher.
Snacks -Your child should bring healthy snack every day. We have a brief snack time where students quietly visit with their friends and eat their snack. Please send a small portion of food that is nutritious and is easy to eat independently. We would like to suggest…Grapes, String cheese, apple slices, celery sticks, carrots sticks, cheese and crackers, raisins, snack bar, etc. Students should also bring a refillable water bottle to school each day.
Lunch - Your child may bring their own lunch or you may opt to purchase lunch. Goldwood Primary School is not equipped with a cafeteria, however, lunches are available for purchase. For more information, click on the link RRCS Nutrition Services.
Communication Folders - Your student will turn in their communication folder every day. Please go through it every evening with your child and sign any papers that require a signature. Also, feel free to write notes to me if you are having any questions or concerns. You may also e-mail ziemann.giovanna@rrcs.org or reach me through the school office at 440-356-6720.
Friday Folders-These will come home with your child almost every Friday with your child’s weekly newsletter. The Friday Folders should be returned to school on Monday.
Report Cards and Conferences - During the school year, you will receive four report cards onlie through Progressbook/Gradebook. There will be one November conference, yet other conferences and discussions can take place as needed through out the school year.
Personal Items - Young children like to bring personal items (toys, stuffed animals, food, jewelry, etc.) to school. We would appreciate your help in keeping these items at home until I notify you of a special sharing time.
Money - If you choose to send money with your child for ANY reason, please send it in an envelope marked with your child’s name, purpose of money, teacher’s name, and the amount in the envelope.
PBIS- This is our positive behavior program at Goldwood! Our building worked together to create a positive program to help our students be successful. The program is school wide and the expectations will be clearly taught in each different area of the school.
