*For your daughter’s safety, the students are not permitted to play on the grass at any time.
Rainy Day Schedule: Arrival will take place from the Alumnae Room.
• If anyone, other than a parent, is picking up your daughter from school, please send in a letter stating the person’s first and last name. This is to ensure your daughter’s safety.
• If your child will be attending After-School, kindly write a note letting us know.

Absences: If your daughter is absent from school for any reason, please call the school and inform the school secretary. When your daughter returns to school, please send in a note stating when and why your daughter was absent.

Snacks: There will be one snack break in the morning. This will take place at 9:30 a.m. Please keep snack in a separate bag from your daughter’s lunch and do not place it into her lunchbox. Snack should be in a brown lunch bag or Ziploc Bag with her name written on the outside.

Lunch: Lunch will take place inside our classroom at 11:30 a.m. Lunch should be placed in a lunch bag or box clearly labeled with your daughter’s name on the outside.

Clothing: Please make sure that all of your daughter’s belongings are clearly labeled with her first and last name. This includes sweaters, jackets, napping blankets, hats, coats etc.

Uniforms: Please follow the proper uniform code. No nail polish or jewelry except stud earrings is permitted.

Tuesday Folder: The Tuesday folder is the school’s way of communicating to you all the exciting things that are going on. Please take the time to read through this material. The Tuesday folder goes home every Tuesday and should be returned to school the very next day.

Birthday Parties: I request that you please inform me a few days before your daughter’s birthday if you are planning to send something in. Cupcakes and small juice boxes will work out very nicely.

Report Cards: Each child in Pre-K will receive her report card three times during the year. I will meet with you for the first two trimesters to discuss your daughter’s progress.

Communication: Communication between parents and teachers is a vital part to your daughter’s success. Arrival and dismissal can be quite busy and hectic. I ask that you do not use this time to discuss specific issues regarding your daughter. If there is something that you need to discuss with me, please make an appointment for a later time, when our attention can be focused upon your concerns.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Nancy Maneri
