How do I know if there is a delayed opening or school closing?
Log on to the Internet to site http://www.milforded.org.
or
Call the Milford Board of Ed at 783-3400 for a recorded message after 6:15am.
Listen to your local radio stations (WICC, WEZN, WAVZ, and WPLR) and/or
television newscasts (WTNH-TV, WVIT-TV, or Channel 12 News).
--------------------------------------
What time does school begin on a delayed opening?
Our school begins at 10:25 A.M.
--------------------------------------
What time are children dismissed on an early dismissal day?
Children are dismissed at 1:25 P.M.
--------------------------------------
Do I have to notify the school if my child is going to be absent?
Please call the school to notify us that your child will be out. Upon
returning, please send a note explaining the absence and doctor's note if
under a doctor's care.
--------------------------------------
What is the procedure if my child has a change in pick up from school?
If you know ahead of time that you’ll be picking up your child early,
send a note in with your child letting us know what time you’re coming. If
you need to pick your child up due to an unforeseen circumstance, call the
school so we can notify your child’s teacher. The children will be called
to the office upon your arrival. You must sign your child out in the main
office.
If your child is going to a friend's house after school, you need to
send your child to school with a note informing the teacher of the change in
dismissal. Children are not allowed to ride different buses for play
dates.
--------------------------------------
How can I arrange for homework when my child is absent?
Homework pick-up is arranged through the main office. When you are calling
in your child’s absence, please let us know at this time that you are
requesting homework. Homework can be picked up at the office after
dismissal time or can be sent home with another student. Homework requests
made after lunchtime are not guaranteed.
--------------------------------------
Can I have lunch with my child?
You are welcome to come for lunch with your child. Please sign in at the
office and meet your child in the cafeteria. Bringing Fast Food lunches,such
as McDonalds, is discouraged. We ask that you do not ask other children to
join you when you come for lunch with your child. We have limited space and it
causes hurt feelings for those not invited to join you.
--------------------------------------
Who do I speak with about my child's lunch account?
The person to contact is Cindy Hanson. You can send a note to school with your
child requesting that she call you. Please include your phone number where you
can be reached, the name of your child, and your child's ID number if you know
it. For more information go to http://milfordfs.org/
--------------------------------------
How do I find out what is being served for school lunches?
The Milford Food Service website has a section detailing the menu.

What is the policy for school parties and birthdays?
Please do not send in food for holidays or birthdays. For a detailed
explanation, please click on the button in the main menu labeled: Simon Lake
School Policies.
