Reminders
from the School Secretary
-
When
your child is going to be absent or late, please call first thing in
the morning. We are concerned about your child's welfare and want to
be sure your child is safe. If they are absent without notice, the
school secretary will attempt to call home, parents' work phone and
other numbers on the student registration card to determine the
whereabouts of your child.
-
After-school
activities require a permission slip for children to participate. If
it is an ongoing weekly activity, you can give a note to the school
secretary stating permission for the school year. If students do not
have a permission slip, they will not be allowed to stay. It is the
parents' responsibility to arrange transportation home for your
child. If they are riding home with someone other than yourself, we
need a written note stating who will be transporting them.
-
Due
to temporary security issues across the country, the exterior doors
on the school will be locked once all the children have arrived at
9:00am, at which time attendance is taken. Classes start at 9:00am,
and students are expected to be on time. Please try your best to
have your child arrive on time. Tardiness is disruptive to the class
schedule and students miss out on important instruction. The
secretary will monitor the door during the day. In her absence,
another staff member will be available.
-
If
you are picking up your child after school, either wait outside at
the main entrance, or if you would like to come inside, please
remain in the foyer. School dismissal time is very hectic in
classrooms and teachers are busy making sure students have all their
homework, notes, lunch boxes etc. before the bus arrives. If you
would like to confer with a teacher concerning your child, please
wait until after the bus leaves. This will also provide you with
some privacy as well.
-
Please
do not expect to have your child supervised if they are dropped off
at the school before the second bus arrives at 8:45am, unless they
are here for a special activity with prior permission, such as a
music lesson. If you choose to drop your child off earlier than
8:45am, they will remain outdoors, unsupervised.
- Food
Service: Lunches, snack drinks and lunch drinks need to be ordered
and paid for one week in advance. Lunches are ordered ahead of time
and delivered to us through the Keene Food Service. We do not
receive extras. You may order and pay for your child's lunches a
month at a time. Please note, all checks need to be made payable to "Keene
Food Service."
