Parents,
Although we function with these rules at school, it is important to sometimes remind your children of these rules while they are also at home. At the beginning of the school year and for the first couple of days after returning from a long holiday (Thanksgiving, Winter break, Spring break), it is often helpful to remind your children of the "school rules". You may try asking them to tell you one or two rules about safe behavior at school. This reminder from home often prevents "forgetting" the rules when we are on a break and helps all of us to have a smoother day back to our routine.
Thank you for your support and involvement with your child's education.
