Student Safety: I would like to thank you in advance for adhering to school protocol and refraining from entering the building during entrance and exit procedures. All visitors entering Oakman are required to sign-in at the Office and obtain a Visitor Pass. In order to preserve critical instructional time parents needing to consult with a teacher are asked to call and make an appointment. Talk to your child about following Crossing Guard, Service Squad and Safety instructions when walking to and from school as they are there to assure student safe passage. Students are not allowed on the playground after school unless accompanied with a parent.
Health: In an effort to keep us all healthy, please model and review proper physical hygiene procedures with your child. Talk to your child about washing their hands regularly using soap and water and not sharing personal belongings with other students. When your child is sick (prolonged fever, vomiting, coughing etc.) please keep them home until a physician has been consulted. If students are ill please keep them home until they are completely well.
Attendance: The Board of Education requires all students to attend school regularly and in a timely manner in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan. The District's educational program is predicated upon the presence of the student and requires continuity of instruction and classroom participation. The regular contact of students with one another in the classroom and their participation in a well-planned instructional activity under the tutelage of a competent teacher are vital to this purpose. Please be sure to drop off and pick up students in a timely manner.
Traffic: Please follow ALL traffic rules and regulations when picking up or dropping off your child. This includes: refraining from parking in the school drop off zones during school hours, being courteous and patient, driving cautiously at all times, refrain from making illegal U-turns and most importantly obeying posted speed limits. Safety of all Oakman students is our number one priority and can only be guaranteed by working together.
Happy Thanksgiving!
