 What should my child bring for snack?
Please send in one healthy snack and drink.  We set aside about 10 minutes 
for snack each day.  The children are responsible for opening their snack 
and cleaning up after themselves.  Of course we are always nearby to help!

 My child is going home with a friend on a different bus.  What do I do?
You must write a bus note when your child is going home on a different bus.  
The note should include your child's first and last name, friend's name and 
friend's bus number.  We will take it out of your child's folder and bring 
it to the main office.  Your child will be issued a bus note that we will 
hand him/her at dismissal.

 How much help should I be giving my child on his/her homework?
It is important for you to encourage your child to do his/her homework on 
their own as much as possible.  Reading the directions and being close by 
is important.  When the homework asks them to write words or sentences, let 
your child try it on their own.  The language I use at school is to "stretch 
out" the word and get down as many letters as possible.

 My child has an after school activity.  Do I have to write you a note?
Please let me know when your child is staying after school for an activity.  
While I do get a master list from the PTA, it is always best to let me 
know.  Also, let me know if your child is not attending a scheduled after 
school activity on a particular day.
