FIELD TRIP CHAPERONES

In order to chaperone on field trips, parents/guardians are required to have criminal and child abuse clearances.  Forms can be obtained in the school office any time.  FBI/Fingerprinting clearances are not required for day trips.  (Only overnight field trips require FBI/Fingerprinting clearances.) If you are considering being a chaperone, please do not wait until the last minute. Once the forms are sent into the state, it may take up to eight weeks for them to be returned.


Perfect Attendance

During the school year there are various awards and prizes that are given for perfect attendance. The entities that set the criteria for these awards define perfect attendance as missing NO EDUCATIONAL TIME DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR. This means students with tardies, early dismissals, educationally approved family vacations, etc. will not be eligible for these prizes. If there are any questions please contact me at the elementary school.

Parents are reminded to drop and pick their children up at the side doors of each building. No cars are to be in the bussing lanes during student arrival and departure. Any student who is late to school must have a parent sign them into the office.
