Important Reminders for the First Day of School:

1.      We make every attempt to be a nut-free campus.  Please adhere to our request of no nuts because of the higher incidence of lethal food allergies in recent years.  Please check your labels as nuts are in many products. This is for the safety of  the children.  All staff and students are to wash their hands on arrival to school.  If a lunch box contains suspicious allergens we will remove it and save it for you.  If you are packing soy butter sandwiches, please label to inform the teacher.

2.      Emergency Forms, Immunizations, and Physician’s Notes

·         All students must have a current immunization record on file before they can attend school.

·         Please turn in the immunization record to us by the first day of school.

·         We will verify that all necessary immunizations have been received.

·         If there are any missing immunizations, we will need for you to update them as soon as possible.

·         All students need a physician’s note (Well Baby Check) stating that your child may attend school.

·         PLEASE remember to check that all Emergency information, Allergy forms, and phone numbers are updated before you leave.

3.      Extended Care is available before school from 7:30a.m. - 9:00a.m. and after school from 3:00p.m. - 6:00p.m., daily.    If you require occasional extended care for your child, please arrange this in advance through the front office so that we may staff accordingly. Regular extra care participants will sign up the first few days of school with Mrs. Bennett at the parent meeting. The rate for extended care is $10.00 per hour/per family.

4.      Please be considerate and call if you are late. There is a $1.00/minute late charge for care after 6:00p.m. This must be paid in cash at the time of late pick up to the care provider that you have delayed.

5.      PARKING: Please drive with caution through our parking lot. Our little ones are learning about crossing safety but are still very prone to darting.

6.      DROP OFF / PICK UP: Between the times of 8:45 am- 9:00 am and 3:00 pm and 3:15 pm we will assist you in unloading or loading your child into your car. Please arrange with the office for needed assistance with drop off and/or pick up.
