This year is going to be a new adventure for you and your child! We will be going on field trips and attending school assemblies. There will be surprises when least expected. This is the joy of being in this Kindergarten class!
3
* Every night your child will bring home a folder used to transport informational papers and homework assignments. Also, if you need to send money or notes, please use the pouch in the front. In the paper protectors of this folder you will find the monthly homework sheet, a monthly behavior chart, and several helpful resources to assist in homework completion. Please send this folder back every day! *Your child will have homework each night Monday- Thursday. It will consist of a reading assignment, letter or word activity and a math activity. Please place completed homework in the back pocket of the folder to be turned in each day.
4
We use a color-coded card system. Students have individual pockets with 6 colored cards. All students begin on green each day. If rules are broken, they will flip through the cards in the following order: green, yellow, orange, and red. There are consequences for behavior and a daily report will be sent home. Students are also afforded the opportunity to earn blue or purple cards for positive behavior. You can track your child’s progress on the monthly behavior chart that you will find in the their folder.

For the first two weeks of school, your child will have a tag attached to his/her backpack to identify if they are bus riders or pickup. Please do not remove the tag.

Please pick him/her up by 3:30 in the cafeteria. If you need to check your child out, please do so by 3:15, otherwise you will be requested to wait until 3:30 in the cafeteria. Please make sure to list the names of those allowed to pick your child up on the “Car Cub Tags”. NOTE: Early checkouts equal a tardy
8
If there is any change in your child’s daily pick-up routine we MUST have a written note or a fax to (910) 324-7801explaining the change that will be approved by the office. Without a note your child will follow his/her regular routine.

We will have at least 2 conferences this school year! Any additional will be scheduled upon need/ request.

Please sign in at the front office and get a sticker that states if you are a visitor. This is for the safety of your children, this is the school’s way of knowing who is on campus! Please be aware that instructional time is very important. Therefore, visitor passes will not be given out after 8:35 am unless arranged with the teacher 24 hours in advance.

School begins promptly at 8:15 a.m. Students arriving after the 8:35 bell are considered tardy and need to be checked into the office by a parent. **Students should not arrive before 8:05. Adult supervision is not available before that time. If your child arrives between 8:05 and 8:15, please have them wait in the cafeteria for dismissal to their classrooms.
