Dear Blue Jay Family,
The purpose of this handbook is to provide you and your family with direction and guidance about our programs, expectations, and the responsibilities of all members of our West Dover Elementary School Community.
We ask that you take some time to review the handbook with your child/children that attend our school.
Throughout the handbook, you will be reminded and see the vision of our school that holds the highest expectations of every school community member to ensure that each student has an opportunity to be successful in a safe learning environment. Our expectations are few and simple, act with respect, be responsible, and reflect on your actions and learning. Please reinforce with your child(ren) the importance of these three core beliefs of our school.
Please feel free to contact our school at any time to discuss the contents of this handbook, or to discuss any other questions you may have.
We appreciate all of your support.
Blue Jays soar to success when they are respectful, responsible, and reflective!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Shannon L. Brown, Principal
Mrs. Kate Melson, Supervisor of Instruction
