Spring Music Programs/Celebrations!
I'm so excited to tell you that this year every kindergarten through fourth grade student at Boone Meadow will have a special after-school music performance, and I'd like to send you some information so you can mark your calendars and save the dates :) These programs will be celebrations of our entire year in music class, and we're hoping to have as many students as possible participate. Many of our grade levels have already started preparing, and you can trust me when I tell you that you won't want to miss it! More information will come closer to the event, but here are the details we have so far:
Third Grade
The "Third Grade Recorder Showcase" program will be held Thursday, May 4th from 6:30-7:15pm in the gym. Come see all the hard work your kids have put into learning their new instruments! More information will follow.
Kindergarten
The "Kindy Sing" program will be held Monday, May 22nd from 6:30-7:15pm in the cafeteria. This is a performance you won't forget, and kids will be encouraged to dress up to make it extra special! More information will follow.
I'm so looking forward to all these great opportunities for our students and their families. Thank you for encouraging your kids in their love of music, and thanks for saving the dates!
Sincerely,
-Will Doublestein

Lunch Guest Sign Ups
Lunch Guests
We are ready to welcome lunch guests! Students and their guests will have lunch at designated locations in the front lobby area. Please no more than 2 guests per student due to limited space. So that others may have the opportunity, we ask that you not sign up more than 1 time per month. As we implement this new system/procedure, we will limit availability one more week to Monday, Wednesday, and Friday visits.
Here's how it works:
- Sign up for a reservation in advance using this link: https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/BMELunchSchedule@zcsk12in.onmicrosoft.com/bookings/ When you sign up, please be certain to complete all fields requested.
- Be sure to notify your child's teacher so they are informed to send your child to the front lobby to meet you/guest during their scheduled lunch time.
- Bring a photo ID and arrive 5 minutes early (lunch times are listed on the signup form link above).
- Your child will meet you in the front office area when they are ready.
School Safety: Visitors & Volunteers Background Checks
When volunteers are needed and approved, appropriate staff members will reach out to you in effort to welcome your support and assistance.

CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECKS FOR VOLUNTEERS
We value partnerships with our families and welcome parents and guardians to serve as volunteers in our schools. Each ZCS building typically offers a wide variety of volunteer opportunities. If you plan to assist as chaperones or engage with children in a volunteer capacity, we strongly recommend getting a criminal background check completed well in advance to have on file.

- Field Day/Jog-A-Thon Volunteers
- Book Fair Sales/Athletic Ticket Sales
During the school day, all volunteers are expected to sign in at the front office. Prior to the volunteer opportunity, all volunteers must sign a Non-disclosure Acknowledgement Form and have successfully completed a Full Criminal History Background Check. Volunteers must also view the state mandated confidentiality/bullying video, provided on the Volunteer/BRAVO website.
CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECKS FOR VISITORS
During the school day, all visitors must enter via the front door and sign-in at the front office. Visitors need to be prepared to present a government issued photo ID which will be scanned against the National Sex Offender Registry. All visitors will be issued a visitor badge/tag to be worn inside the building at all times.
Examples Include:
- Lunch Guests
- Classroom Guest Speakers
