Grades 3-5 Ipad Insurance
November 10, 2017: iCoverage enrollments ends for students. No payments will be accepted from students after this date!
As a 1:1 school system, Washington County Public Schools (WCPS) provides an iPad,
a protective case, charger, and district support for all students. All students are
required to pay an iCoverage fee for the iPads, and have a parent‐signed user
agreement for the Responsible Use Guidelines.
iCoverage for iPads covers all students in grades 3‐12. iCoverage costs $15 per
student (year‐long) effective upon receipt for 2017‐2018 school year. If there are
financial concerns due to hardship in the household, please contact the school
counseling office or school administration.
You may pay for iCoverage by sending cash or a check to the front office or you may go to https://www.myschoolbucks.com
Do NOT delay! No extensions past Nov 10th!
Parent-teacher conferences
- Parents can request a parent conference any time of the year, coordinating through the teacher. These conferences can be in person or via phone.
- Teachers will be requesting conferences as needed throughout the year.
- Please make sure you are signed up for ParentVue, and you can view the daily progress of your child.
If you have any other suggestions to improve communication, please let us know
Health & Wellness
Keeping Our Kiddos Healthy!
WCPS and Pleasant Valley Elementary are working with your families to ensure that our students become healthy, productive citizens. To that end, WCPS has adopted a wellness regulation that outlines expectations for food and nutrition in schools. We ask that you help us to follow these guidelines by providing only healthy, individually wrapped snacks to classrooms in our primary grades.
Please note:
This year classroom celebrations will not include food but will offer age-appropriate activities.
We are not able to allow cupcakes and traditional sweet treats in class this year (for example - birthday celebrations with food). However, please feel free to send in non-food items to the class to celebrate a birthday (i.e. pencils, stickers, erasers...)
Tardies, Absences, and Early Dismissals
If your child is tardy to school, has an early dismissal, or absence, please send a note to school with your child explaining the reason. Be specific by stating if it is a medical appointment or illness in your note. All notes must be signed by a parent/guardian. If your child went to the doctor, please provide a doctor's note. Parents/guardians MUST use their drivers' license to sign their child(ren) in or out during school hours.
If an emergency arises or your child has a last-minute medical appointment, simply bring a signed early dismissal note with you when picking up your child.
