What time does school begin?

The school day begins at 8:15.  If your child is a car rider please aware 
the 
last minute line sometimes can result in tardies (meaning you would need to 
come in and sign your child in.) Most students are in the gym by 8:10.

Will my child read this year?

I assure you that your child will make continuous progress throughout the 
year.  I will keep you informed on your child's progress.  Children are not 
required to read the kindergarten year, but many are reading by May or 
sooner.

Will there be homework?

Yes, a limited amount.  Homework assignments are sent home on Monday 
afternoons with a due date each Friday.  This policy allows you to choose 
when homework time best suits your schedule.

How will I know what is going on at school?

I send home a weekly newsletter each Friday, this website will be regularly 
updated and your child will have a yellow folder that will be 
our "lifeline."  Daily I check the folders for notes and send responses.

Can I volunteer?

Yes, yes, yes!!  I love volunteers.  Every volunteer goes through a training 
session and security check.  Give the school a call (781-1356) for the next 
training date.

What happens if my child is sick?

Attendance is critical.  Everyday is an adventure you don't want your child 
to miss.  If he/she is running a temp. or vomiting, of course he/she needs 
to 
be at home.  Simply call the office and alert the attendance clerk.(781-1356)

Celebration (October), Winter Celebration (December), Valentine's Day, and  
Spring Celebration.

throughout the year to keep you informed.
