Just a few important notes:

Arrival Procedure:
     Car riders: Drop- off in the morning is on Third Street (right in            front of the school). Your child will exit the car and be escorted        into the school by a teacher, and greeted at the doors by                  another teacher. For the first several days, I wil be stationed in        our classroom doorway to wave the children into the                        classroom.
    
     Bus riders: The students will exit the bus, and will be escorted         to the doors of the primary hallway.  Again, a teacher will be             stationed at those doors, and I will be visible to the children for       the first days.

     Morning Cares: The students will be escorted from the                       cafeteria to our classroom by Mrs. Nemceff or teacher aide.

Dismissal Procedure:
     Car riders: Students will be dismissed from primary hallway             doors and escorted by the teacher on duty to the small                     parking lot adjacent to the school, where you will be waiting.           The crossing guard will then cross you to the big parking lot             across the street.

     Bus riders: A teacher will escort your child to the appropriate             bus. Please meet your child at the bus stop.

     Afternoon Cares: Your child will be picked up from the 
     classroom by Mrs. Nemceff or will be escorted by a teacher
     to the cafeteria.

SNACKS:                                                                                                             It is a long day for these guys, and a snack and short                         socialization break is very conducive to learning. Please                   send in two snacks for your child each day! If a snack will be           provided by the school for free, as it was last year, I will let               you know!

Dress Code:
     Please follow the dress code as outlined in the HFS handbook.       However, the boys do not have to wear belts...they can be                 really tricky when the need to use the restroom is urgent!

Homework:
     The minimal homework that will be given will be published               under the "Homework" tab on my teacher page daily. The                 children are also always informed of their homework.
       
Star Student: 
     Each week, a new star student will be picked! We will explore           this student's special interests and talents, and the student will       enjoy many coveted jobs and privileges. On Friday, the                       student will  bring home a special booklet created by his/her           classmates, celebrating his/her "star quality"! A letter will be             placed in your child's homework folder, the Friday prior to                 his/her special week, detailing directions and requests.

Thank you!
