Bundle Up!
Children will be expected to go outdoors for recess when the temperature and wind chill is 20 degrees Fahrenheit and above. Students will not go out if it is raining or sleeting. It also says that if your child must stay indoors because of illness during recess time, we ask that you write a daily note requesting that your child stay inside. Repeated requests for indoor recess will prompt the nurse to require a written statement from the family doctor concerning the request.
PTO Sponsored Read-a-Thon
Get ready to take a bite out of Central Elementary’s Read-a-thon Fundraiser this January. Students will have the opportunity to participate in this two week long event promoting a love of reading, while raising funds to help provide classroom grants for the direct benefit of our children. All participants will be invited to a celebration including bounce houses and the Pacer Fan Van, with additional prizes for the top reading and fundraising classes.
Watch for more information to come home during the week of January 9th.
Changing the End of the Day Transportation Routine
The following information is simplified from our handbook:
- If your child is to go home a way different than their normal arrangement, you must send in a note to the teacher with instructions as to how the child is to go home.
- Please make these arrangements before school or by 1:00 p.m. at the latest.
- If you call requesting that your child become a car rider, you are required to come into the school office to sign out your child. Your child will be waiting in the office lobby until you sign them out.
- If you call requesting that your child ride a bus home instead of being a car rider, we will need to verify that we are speaking to the child’s parent/guardian
- Finally, please note that e-mail notifications of changes for the end of the day ride home will not be accepted.
Car Riders
- Please do not drop off students before 8:30 a.m. We do not have supervision available.
- Continue to pull all the way around the half-circle. If you need to buckle your children, we ask that you stay in your car until you can pull all the way forward to the spots right before Wabash.
Thank you very much for making this process as smooth as possible!
