How much are school lunches?
Student lunches are $1.60 a day. Adult/visitor lunches are $3.00.
--------------------------------------
When do you eat lunch?
We eat lunch from 11:35-12:10.
--------------------------------------
Can I send birthday snacks?
Yes, you can send any snack on any day. Just send it with your child in the
morning and we'll pass it out during snack time, which is at 10:00.
--------------------------------------
Where do I pick my child up?
We dismiss on the East side of the school building at 2:50. Please have
your robin
car tag in the window so we can identify your child quickly.
--------------------------------------
What time can I drop my child off in the morning?
Drop off begins at 7:30. If your child is eating breakfast, you can drop
them off on the east side of the building at 7:15. This is only for
children eating breakfast.
--------------------------------------
What time does school dismiss?
First grade will dismiss at 2:50. If you are going
through the line, please wait for the Kindergarten traffic to slow down
before attempting to pick up your child.
--------------------------------------
Can I volunteer?
We love our volunteers! I do, however, like for you to send a note before
you come to help in the classroom. This way, I can have something ready for
you to help with, or children assigned for you to read with.
--------------------------------------
Are there specific times to come and conference?
I will be glad to conference with you any day during our PE time (1:25 -
2:10), or after school. If you need to speak with me, please send a note
and we can schedule a day and time to discuss your concerns. Unfortunately,
there isn't time to conference in the pick-up line. If you need to give me
information, you are welcome to come see me after the children have been
picked up.
--------------------------------------
How much time should my child be reading?
Children in first grade should be reading both silently and aloud at home
each day. Thirty minutes of silent and oral reading will help your child
become a fluent reader. Encourage children to read fiction and non-fiction
text. Always discuss the information read and ask the child to retell the
information or events in a story. That way you know whether or not they
understand. Praise your child often, and tell them about books and articles
you are reading, or read when you were a child. Model reading when possible.
Take turns reading aloud with your child. They will want to emulate your
phrasing and expression. Most of all, show that reading is fun and is a
necessary life skill.
