1. Parent pick-up:
Absence is vital to the success of your child. If your child must be absent, he/she is required to bring a written excuse (if you can call school ahead of time, it would help out immensely).
2. Communication:
Your child will bring home a blue folder with homework, newsletters,
and other informations. Newsletters will be sent on Mondays.
Please, take out papers daily.
3. Early Release/Change in transportation:
If for some reasons you are picking up your child early, you must go to the office, and the secretary will inform the teacher. If you are picking up your child, who normally rides the bus, please send a note informing me of this change. All transportation changes must be indicated in writing. Please note that children may not take the bus home with a friend (even with a note). Bus drivers only accept children on their bus list.
4. Arrival in classroon:
Students may wait on the first floor by the main door or go to breakfast. They will be released to go to their classroom at 9:00 am. when the school bell rings.
All students coming after 9:15 will be sent to the office for the late slip.
5. Bus and Patrol Lines:
Safety on the bus/patrol lines is becoming a bigger community issue every day. We will be discussing the rules in class during the first month and throughout the year. Please reinforce the importance of following school bus rules. Parents are notified of incident reports (pink slips) given to the school from the bus drivers. If your child has:
3 pink slips = 3 days off the bus 5 pink slips = 30 days off the bus
4 pink slips = 10 days off the bus 6 pink slips = off the rest of the year, and no
field trip
PLEASE, do NOT park on Bush Avenue.
6. Parent pick-up:
Parent pick-up students will be told to wait in the gym seated below their grade level sign. There will be one sign for K-2 and one for 3-6.
Parent pick-up will not be on Clarence Avenue anymore. Do NOT park on Bush Avenue since it is reserved for school buses.
7. Gym shoes:
Athletic shoes are necessary in Physical Education for your child’s safety. They will not be allowed to participate in P. E. classes if they do not have appropriate shoes. Students may leave their gym shoes at school even on non-P.E. days.
8. Breakfast & lunch:
Breakfast is available at school from 8:45-9:15. Your child will be marked tardy if they are not in the room by 9:20. Each child will be assigned a personal identification number (PIN) to put into the computer each time they eat. Free and reduced lunch forms are available if needed. Checks should be made out to St. Paul Schools Food Service, and you may send in money or checks daily, weekly, or monthly. Please, put money in an envelope and label it with your child’s first and last name. If you write a check, be sure to put your child’s PIN number on it.
9. Items That Must Stay at Home:
Toys distract students from learning and are often taken or misplaced. Please keep these things at home: gum, toys of any kind (toy guns, cards, action figures, video games, etc.), money, weapons, perfume, make-up, or fancy jewelry.
