ELEMENTARY SCHOOL the college school
Logistics In addition to the school information provided in the Family Handbook on the Parent Portal, we would like to draw your attention to a few logistics around our Elementary School. Start and End of Day Classes begin at 8:15 AM for the entire school. Students arriving before 8:00 AM will register for our Before School Program. If a student will be absent, please contact teachers and the Administration Office to let us know before 8:15 AM. School dismissal is 3:15 PM. Auxiliary Program The Before School Program (BSP) runs from 7:00-8:00 AM. The After School Program (ASP) runs from 3:30-6:00 PM. Lunch and Recess There is a strong emphasis on healthy living and stewardship to the environment that we teach our students. Our lunch program provides lunches that are nutritionally-sound with locally-sourced ingredients whenever possible, as well as reusable dishes and utensils. Milk and water are available. Each grade also takes a minimum of one recess break per day. Medications When it is necessary for a student to take medication during the day, a written note signed by a parent/ guardian must be given to the School Nurse stating the medication’s name, as well as when and how it should be taken. Medications should be in their original container and will be kept by the School Nurse until needed by the student. Field Trips Several trips are planned during the school year, most requiring transportation on one of the school’s four buses. Parents/Guardians sign a blanket permission form prior to the first day of school.
