Welcome!

 


UNIFORMS
   School uniforms are required.  They are ordered from the Greene Uniform 
Co., and the children are measured in school.  A written excuse is presented 
to the main office if it is necessary for a child to be out of uniform.


TRAFFIC
   Parents transporting their children to and from school are requested to 
follow the traffic patterns established by the school.  The children are to 
be dropped off at the parking lot beside the new church.  This request is 
made to insure the safety of all our children.  Please do not drive into the 
lot since the children line up there.  Pick up is on Anstice Street.  
Parents are asked to stay in their cars and line up along the church side of 
the street.


PLAYGROUND
   A paid employee and volunteer mothers take care of the students during 
the playground period which is from 12:15 - 1:00 p.m.


LUNCH
   All grades eat lunch in the Social Room.  Hot lunch is served every day.  
Many children bring their own lunch.  A drink may also be purchased.  Please 
refer to our ST. DOMINIC MONTHLY LUNCH MENU page for a complete daily menu.


HOMEWORK
   Parents can do much to aid their child's progress through the proper 
direction of homework.  They should provide the time, location, and an 
atmosphere conducive to learning for their child.  Parents are requested to 
encourage neatness and thoroughness in their child's work.


TESTING
   The students of St. Dominic Elementary School participate in the tests 
mandated by New York State as well as the standardized tests sponsored by 
the Diocesan Office of Catholic Education.


CONFERENCES
   Report Cards are distributed three times a year.  Parent/Teacher 
Conferences for all families are scheduled at the appropriate times.  
Additional conferences may be scheduled if either the teacher or the parent 
deems it necessary.  Requests for individual conferences should be made in 
writing.
