Looking Forward to Seeing our Families and our Students on
September 4, 2018
Classes
will resume on Tuesday, September 4, 2018 at 9:00 a.m. and we want to warmly
welcome back all of our students and our new students.
On the
first day of school, there will be supervision in the yard starting at 8:45 a.m. At this time parents can come with their
children and follow the procedures outlined below:
· All
kindergarten children will meet outside in the kindergarten yard. The children will be guided into their
classrooms right away through the kindergarten door. We kindly remind all
parents to say their goodbyes outside the Kindergarten Gate, to foster
independence in their children. The first day for Year One /JK students only will be a half day
from 8:45 to 11:30 a.m.
· We are reminding parents of
year one (JK) students in Kindergarten to meet in the Learning Commons at 11:10
a.m to learn about School Council before picking up their children at 11:30
a.m.
· -Students who will be in
grades 1 - 8 will be met by teachers in the school yard at the back of the
school and will be directed where to line up.
· Students in grades 1 to 3
will gather in the Primary Yard.
· Students in Grades 4 to 8
will gather in the Junior/Intermediate yard.
· Parents will notice that
there will be signs placed on chairs to indicate where each grade level is to
line up before entry.
· All parents are reminded NOT
to walk through the kindergarten yard to access the Primary yard. Only students can be in the
kindergarten yard.
Please
do not drop your children off before 8:45 a.m. All children are expected to
walk around the school using the sidewalk and the path to enter the school
yard
where supervision at 8:45 a.m. is provided.
The school parking lot is off limits to students and we respectfully ask
that parents do not park or stop or enter the school parking lot.
In case
of rain, students in grades 1 - 8 will enter the front foyer and go directly to
the gym. All kindergarten students will
enter through the kindergarten doors right away in case of rain.
For
pick up at the end of the day at 3:30 p.m.
students will be dismissed from their dismissal doors into the school yard. The
dismissal doors are as follows:
Kindergarten: Kindergarten
Door
Grade1 -3: Primary Door
Grade 4-8: Intermediate Door
We
respectfully remind all parents to wait OUTSIDE the dismissal doors to pick up their
children. Please remember that all doors
to the school are locked at all times. Kindergarten students will be dismissed
directly to parents from the kindergarten classroom doors at the end of the
day.
Please do not call the office or e-mail regarding class placement or to
request who your child’s teacher will be for this school year. We are still in
the process of registering students and class lists are still being finalized.
Students and parents will find out who the teacher is and class placement on
the first day of school.
We look forward to seeing everyone
on Tuesday, September 4, 2018.
