A Few Classroom Policies



Just a few things to keep in mind to make sure we are buzzing off to a good start...


  • Take home folders and backpacks are needed every school day!
  • Birthday invitations are welcome to be distributed at school as long as the ENTIRE class is included. Feelings are hurt when invitations are passed out and a child does not receive one. Please be mindful of this in planning.
  • Send a note to school whenever there is a change in transportation. Please send a dated and signed note with details for how your child will be getting home after school. If a change occurs during the school day, please call our school office and notify them of the change.
  • All money brought to school must be contained in a sealed well-labeled envelope. For example lunch money should be in an envelope with your child's first and last name as well as the amount inside and the teacher's name.
  • Water bottles are always welcome in our classroom. We must limit it to water only as many accidents can happen with so many active little bodies!
  • When winter arrives; extra winter wear (hats, mittens, socks) should be kept in your child's backpack just in case it's needed.
  • An extra change of clothing should be in your child's bag if they are prone to accidents. This will save you a trip to the school and your child feeling funny in clothes from the office.
  • Please be mindful and send in two HEALTHY snacks daily.  We have a multitude of allergies in our classroom including severe peanut and milk allergies, so please keep this in mind when packing snacks for your child.
