Class Policy

 
Welcome to a new and exciting school year!  

Things you need to know:

I know the list that I sent home was long and costly.  Don't stress if you 
need to break it up over a couple of pay checks.  

School fees are 15.00. (Changed 20.00 from last year) This fee pays for 
paper and other classroom supplies.

I will not be assigning lockers this year.  They seemed to be a big 
distraction and created more problems than they solved.  

School hours are 8:15 to 3:15.  Children must be signed in and out through 
the office. 

No breakfast is served in the cafeteria.

Dress code applies to all CD students. Previous dress code waivers still 
apply.

It is very important that your child does not bring toys, stereos, 
electronic games, etc., to school unless they have been given specific 
permission.  That permission will be written in the agenda or a reward pass.

The term "age appropriate" is a term you will hear a lot from me.  We want 
to treat our students like normal 11-12 year olds so they will learn to 
behave as normal 11 - 12 year olds.  It is very important that you do not 
encourage your child to participate in activities designed for much younger 
children.  

We use a reward system where they earn "money" for good behavior and pay 
fines for inappropriate actions.  On Fridays, they will be allowed to buy 
game passes, free time passes, listen to music passes, and other similar 
rewards.
