CBS Banking Days are back!! The next banking day is Tuesday,
May 20, 2008,from 7:20 to 7:50 in the school lobby.
Parents, please be reminded and remind your students that there
are no electronic devices allowed at school. This includes
the school bus. No IPODS, MP3 Players, CD Players, Gameboys, Tamagotchi's, etc. Some students are distracted
by these in class and we would not want one of these items to be
stolen. Thank you for your support!
Please be aware that
students are not allowed to wear the "HEELY" (athletic shoe with
a roller in the heel) shoes to school. While they are
great fun, they can be dangerous. Please do not allow your
students to wear them to school. Thank you!
SOAR - Set Our
Attention on Reading, happens daily!! We are ALL
reading daily from 1:50 to 2:05. There are no student
check outs after 1:45 to protect our reading time.
We understand that there are occasional doctor or dentist
appointments. Please send a note to the teacher and we
will have the student reading in the office so we do not
interrupt our SOAR time.
Important Reminders:
The building does not open
for students until 7:20. Please do not drop students off
before this time because there is no adult supervision.
Any transportation
changes must be sent to the office in writing. This
includes bus changes, ASP changes and car rider changes. While
we would like to be able to accept emails and faxes the reality
is that we can’t always check email in a timely manner and often
the faxes don’t come through. Please plan carefully so that we
know all children are safe. A
transportation
change form
is available for your use.
There is no student
checkout after 1:45 p.m. Students will not be called
from classes for dismissal during SOAR.
Being on time to school is extremely important. Instruction
will start promptly at 7:50. If they arrive after 7:50
they are counted tardy. If your student is late then they miss
valuable instructional time. |
