Identification badges
All of our employees and students are required to wear identification badges at all times while on campus. When visitors are on campus, they are also required to wear some form of identification. Lost ID badges will be replaced three (3) times at no cost to the parent. After that, a replacement ID badge will cost $3 to be replaced. It will be the parent's responsibility to pay the fee to replace the badge.
Student Uniforms
Village Elementary is a mandatory unified dress code school. For security reasons, it is expected that all students are in uniform, Monday through Friday with the exception of designated school spirit days which will be announced ahead of time. The student dress code guidelines outlined in the Code of Student Conduct will be enforced.
Emergency Drills
Emergency preparedness drills will continue to occur on a regular basis (fire and tornado drills). Additionally, we will be conducting Code Red Drills each month as a part of our emergency preparedness. Appropriate notice of the drills will be provided when necessary.
Breakfast
There is FREE breakfast available for all students. Breakfast begins at 8:05AM. Students will be allowed on campus at that time to enter the cafeteria for breakfast. There is NO supervision on campus prior to 8:00AM. Please do not leave your scholar outside of the perimeter fencing prior to it being opened.
