"STUDENT DISMISSAL” POLICY

...A CHANGE IN TRANSPORTATION:

If your child is going home a DIFFERENT way, parents need to notify the office staff by 2:00 in the afternoon. We must receive a phone call or written notice about any change in the way a student is going home.

...CAR RIDERS:

Students who are picked up by car are dismissed at 2:55 p. m. each day. If a child is picked up BEFORE that time, he/she is counted as “early dismissal” or leaving before time.

Remember that car riders are to be picked by by 3:15 or be recorded as “late pick ups.” Thanks!

Just a reminder to check out your EdLine account. If you have any questions, please contact Ms. Ross. We look forward to communicating more with you this year through EdLine!

Edline is designed for communication between school and home. Parents will be able to see student grades, teacher calendars, as well as some student projects. Teachers will post important activities in Edline as a reminder for your child.

EdLine is also a great way to add your e-mail information to our Parent E-mail database. Mr. Miller can simply select to send e-mail reminders out to parents who have activated their EdLine account and have updated their information with an e-mail address. (This is still private and cannot be seen or used by anyone else.) Thank you for your support and participation!

Happening This Week

THIS HAS BEEN CANCELED for TONIGHT
Tuesday, February 9th - LOVE & LOGIC 6:00-8:00 P.M.
"Love & Logic" for Parents is a philosophy of raising and teaching children which allows adults to be happier, empowered, and more skilled in the interactions with children. Love allows children to grow through their mistakes. Logic allows children to live with the consequences of their choices. It is a way of working with children that puts parents back in control, teaches children to be responsible, and prepares young people to live in the real world, with its many choices and consequences.
