CRUSADER NEWS THAT YOU CAN USE....
Week #1 WAS GREAT! August 24, 2018
This Week's Recap....
We truly had a marvelous first week of school. Thank you all for taking the time to read all of the literature from school and applying it. The students have been wonderful and everything about our first week has been extremely positive.
Teachers have spent a majority of this week teaching procedures and reviewing policies and expectations. This truly is the most important thing that teachers ca do in the first week or so of school.
Each student was given a green folder for home school communications. Please make sure that you are looking for and checking the folder every Friday and any other day that it is sent home, starting today.

The biggest problem we have had this week is....
As you can imagine, it is very difficult in the first couple of weeks of school for teachers who do not yet really know our student's families to know who is and who is not permitted to remove a child from school. We rely 100% on the information that you have provided to us when you registered your child. We do check this and we will not release a child to anyone who is not on the list. If we do not recognize the individual, we will ask for identification. As I write this email, Mrs. Sejba is dealing with exactly this problem at the front counter.
This week we have had several situations occur because parents sent someone who was not on the list . Or they sent someone that we did not know, we had to ask for identification and they did not have any with them. This causes a back-up in the parking lot as you can imagine, and it also causes bad feelings. Please make sure that your pickup list is accurate and up to date. If you are sending someone who is not on the list, please call or send an email to well in advance of dismissal. Let us know if it is just for the day or if the person should be added. Or you can always get in touch with me.
The second issue involves the many buses that now seem to be coming to pick children up. Last year we had three. This year, we have 6 so far. It is extremely important that we have accurate information about what children go on which bus and when. And, it is important the bus drivers know what time to pick up the students. Please stay in close touch with us if there are any changes.

And Speaking of Tardiness
Please begin the school year with the habit of being on time. While everyone may experience a problem from time to time, the students who are regularly tardy are missing out and it also is a disruption in the classroom as the teacher has to stop and take care of morning business with the tardy student.
Coming to school early and breakfast
So far, everything is going well at breakfast. Our staff and volunteers have it well under control and we appreciate them very much!
