Expectations Regarding Illegal Absences
We often receive questions from parents as to what is expected in terms of lost instruction when children are illegally absent from school as for a family vacation when school is in session. We hope the following considerations will be helpful.
The instruction and learning that occurs on a daily basis in the classroom is central to our mission. The tasks that are assigned and completed during class generally cannot be duplicated through outside activities or assignments.
Classroom interactions and the learning that occurs through them form the basis for homework assignments. It is difficult to anticipate how these interactions will effect homework assignments when a child is absent for an extended period. Said anther way; teachers plan assignments in advance but regularly make changes in response to a class's particular instructional needs. So, during the course of several days of instruction, assignments may change dramatically.
Teachers may prepare assignments for students and parents based on their intended instructional materials, handouts, etc. that are given to the class during the absence will be provided to the student upon his/her return to school. Teachers may choose to work with the student before or after school depending on the nature of the assignments and work missed. Students are expected to make up all assignments within a reasonable time, and teachers will make appropriate efforts on their behalf. Our teachers continue to be committed to the success of all of our students.
Parents should make every effort to plan family vacations during school recesses. In the event that that is not possible, it is important to recognize that it is the parents' responsibility and their children's responsibility to make up missed work and assignments.Arrival & Dismissal Procedures
Please be aware that if you need to drop your child off at school in the morning, our bus monitors are not available until 8:40 a.m. For your child’s safety, we ask that you remain with your child until our bus monitors arrive.
If your child is a bus rider and you choose to pick him/her up in the afternoon, a note is required each day that you will picking your child up. Also, please be sure to check in with the afternoon bus monitors before you leave the building. This can be a busy time and we want to make sure that all children are safe and only leaving with a parent or other designated adult.
