FAQ
Homework is due the day after it has been assigned. Monday's homework is due Tuesday, Tuesday's homework is due Wednesday etc. The students will copy homework into their notebook each day. If the student forgets their notebook at home please see the "Homework" page on this webpage. How do I notify the school of a transportation change? Your child has a "usual" way of getting home from school each day even though the way they go home on Monday might be different than the way they go home on Tuesday. When a change comes up in the "usual" way that they go home for that day, the request must be in writing. Please use a full sheet of paper. The note should include the child's full name, teacher's name, date, what the change needs to be, as well as a parent's signature. The note should be given to the teacher to be forwarded to the office to document. Please remind/encourage your child to turn those notes in to the teacher in the morning. A note at 3:15 makes for a frantic dismisal. What should my child do with their Buzz Bucks? The Honey Hive is open during lunch recess on Thursdays for students to spend their Buzz Bucks. These have been earned for following school rules and exhibiting positive behavior. Many students like to keep these in a "Buzz Buck holder" which can be purchased from the school office. Buzz Bucks cannot be replaced if they are lost or washed in a pocket. The colors change each nine weeks. Students need to spend the old color by the Thurday following the end of the 9 weeks. When should we pay lunch money? Lunch money should be paid weekly or monthly. It should be sent in an envelope clearly marked with the student's full name, teacher's name, amount being paid and the child's lunch code number. You do not need to identify breakfast money and lunch money. Students are given a lunch menu at the beginning of the month and it is also posted on the Honey Island website. Does my child need a snack each day? The class is permitted to have a light snack each day. Students are not allowed to trade or share snacks except for birthday treats. You may also send a box drink or a water if you like. Please, no soda, or candy. Try to make it a healthy snack. Can we send in treats for a child's birthday? If your child would like to celebrate their birthday at school please contact me prior to the date. You may send in a snack and napkins that can be shared at the end of the day. I will send home book club forms at the beginning of the month. Please make your checks out directly to the book club. We recieve points toward classroom books and materials when you order and students enjoy receiving books in class. What is the school's policy on visitors and volunteers? We encourage parents and family members to visit our school and to be active. All visitors and volunteers need to sign in at the front ofice and wear an identificaion badge while on the campus. This is a state law and will be enforced for your child's safety. Please sign in using the volunteer book in the front office. The PTA logs volunteer hours which includes chaperoning field trips and helping out at class parties. Unexpected classroom visits and hall conferences are not allowed at our school. If you need to see your child or need to drop something off, the ofice will send for the child. What time should my child be at school? Please try to have your child at school on time. The bell rings for school to begin at 8:20, and students are counted as tardy if they arrive after 8:30. Instruction begins as students enter the classroom. Students can be brought to school starting at 7:50. Can my child bring a water bottle to school? Water bottles are permitted in my classroom. However, I require they have a "pop-top" on them. This prevents large spills on classroom supplies. If the student has a screw cap, they will not be permitted to use it. Please, water only. |
