🐯 WELCOME BACK TOP TIGERS 🐯
Happy First day of school!!
We are so happy to have everyone back in the building FULL TIME! In this newsletter you'll find many updates regarding transportation, lunch, and much more.
To keep students in the building full time we know that safety will have to be our number one priority. We appreciate your teamwork in making sure that your Top Tiger student(s) comes to school with a well-fitting mask that is worn properly over their nose and under their chin.
Teachers will continue to implement frequent handwashing breaks throughout the day. Our goal is to stay in school, fully operational, for as long as possible & we appreciate your teamwork and support of all safety measures to make this happen.
Bus Routes
Just like last year, our buses will be operating with community stops instead of front door drop offs. If you are unsure of your stop or need some assistance, please contact Olivia Wilson, our school data manager at olivia.wilson@nhcs.net or 910-350-2121.
Arrival to School
The tardy bell rings at 7:50AM and instruction will begin in your child's classroom. Thanks again for your help and patience
TRANSPORTATION
Dismissal From School
If your student is a walker, please work with your child's teacher. Walkers can report to either blacktop, but must be discussed with the classroom teacher for a smooth transition. We ask that parents stand on the far back side of the blacktop to allow our classes to dismiss and get to their dismissal location.
Please know that if the teacher does not see you, the student will then follow their teacher for dismissal and you will need to report to the office for check out.
🍎 🥦 LUNCH 🌭 🍕
At this time we will NOT have visitors for lunch. We are utilizing our cafeteria at 50% capacity at this time and will notify you of any changes in the future. Thank you for understanding!
Please visit Child Nutrition to access menus and payment options.
🎂 Birthday Treats 🎂
If you would like to celebrate your child's birthday at school, please contact our School Cafeteria Manager, Katie Saunders (katie.saunders@nhcs.net ). She can provide cupcakes, cookies and maybe even ice cream for your child's class. Ms. Saunders will need ONE WEEK's notice to make this happen.
We will NOT allow any outside cupcakes/cake, snacks or treats into the building to celebrate birthdays at this time. Again, thank you for understanding.
Volunteers
If you would like to volunteer here at The Valley, please contact Jenny Weinkle at jenny.weinkle@nhcs.net or 910-350-2121 for more information.
