What do I do after my child is absent?

It is school board policy that all absences must have a note.  Please send a 
sign note or a doctor's excuse when your child returns to school.  If your 
child is out for more than 2 days please call the office and leave a 
message.

What is the afternoon dismissal policy?

Dismissal is 12:45 If your child is a car rider, your child will be brought up to the front and 
they sit in a designated area.  You may either park in the parking lot or near the school.  Please walk 
in and sign your child out.     All students must be pick up on time.    Late pick ups does not allow 
the teachers adequate time for preparation.  Please help us make your child's 
first school experience  a positive one

What is the folder system?

Your child needs to bring in their daily folder every day. This is our daily 
communication system.   I will send home your child's  work in this folder 
along with important notes from me or the office.  I also ask that you place 
any notes or monies in envelopes to me in this folder.  The students will 
check it each morning and return item to me.  
Please go over your child's work, and practice on things missed.

What are the classroom rules?

We have 4 basic rules in our classroom.  
1.Listening ears.
2.Helping Hands
3.Work and Play safely.
4.Be nice to others.

I believe in a positive classroom enviorment..  Students are always 
encouraged to do their best,  each student has special talents that can shine.

Rewards for positive classroom behavior and participation: hugs, high fives, 
praise, stickers, super skittles

Consequences:  Time to his/her self; loose recess, phone call and or note to 
parent

What is the green, yellow and red light?

We use this in the classroom as  visual to the students.  All students being 
their day on green.  When students do not follow the rules they are moved to 
the edge of green which is a warning.  They are then moved to yellow which 
means the child will have to sit out 5 minutes at recess.  If a child 
continues to break the rules he/she will move the name to red and will miss 
15 minutes of recess.  I do not believe in missing ALL of recess unless under 
severe consequences. Parents will be informed daily of his/her child's 
behavior.
