ID’s Required

For the safety of our students, teachers and staff, anyone who enters our campus for any reason at all MUST show their ID card or Bear Tag to the front office. Pictures of ID’s and pictures of Bear tags are NOT allowed.

Attendance/Absences

If your child is going to be absent or you need to email a doctor’s note, please email that information to [email protected] or send it into the teacher.

Please remember to put why your student has been absent.

 

Clinic Needs

The clinic needs boys and girls bottoms sizes 5 and up.

 

 

Birthday/ Holiday Celebrations

 

Students’ birthday/holiday celebrations may be celebrated. Just a reminder that any treats given out in the classroom need to be individually wrapped and store bought this year.  Please communicate with your child’s teacher if you do wish to bring something in.

 

Transportation Changes

If there is any change in the way your child is going home, we MUST have a handwritten note with specific instructions. The note must be given to the teacher by the morning of the change in order to clear up any questions that may arise. Please do not email transportation changes to your child’s teachers. They do not always read their emails during the day. 

You may email only EMERGENCY transportation changes to [email protected] before 1:00 pm. If we do not get a note, your child will go home their normal way. NO CALLS will be accepted for transportation changes due to safety and security issues.
