What if my child has a change in dismissal plans?

He or she will need to bring two notes to school on the day of the change.  
One note is for me.  The other note will be carried with your child to the 
bus driver.  Without the notes, I will be obligated to send your child home 
as usual.

What if my child forgets somethings at home? (special notes, lunch box, etc.)

If is an urgent matter, I would suggest calling the school and leaving a 
message with one of the school secretaries so that they can then pass the 
information on to me or a substitute.  Items can also be dropped off at the 
office.  Non-urgent matters can be e-mailed to me or you can leave me a 
voice mail.  Please keep in mind that substitutes will not have access to my 
voice mail or e-mail.

Can I eat lunch with my child?

YES!  Just sign in at the office and wait for our class as we walk by for 
lunch.  Join in the line and have an enjoyable lunch!  If you would like for 
me to order you a hot lunch, bagel/yogurt,  or salad, please send a note in 
with your child that morning.

What can we do for a homework coupon?

Anything that your child brings home in his/her blue folder can be reviewed 
with you for a coupon.   One coupon equals one activity.  Examples:  book in 
the bag, take-home book, yellow highlighted worksheets, corrected pages, 
workbook packets, etc.

When are spelling tests?

Spelling tests will be on Fridays.  Our first spelling test will be near the 
end of September.  Look for a spelling practice sheet that is sent home on 
Monday.

How are birthdays celebrated at school?

The Zionsville Community School Corporation has updated their Wellness 
Policy.  Food items will no longer be allowed during birthday 
celebrations.   We will continue to celebrate the birthday child with 
recognition on morning announcements, a song, cards, and a small surprise.
