Birthday Treats

Birthday treats may be sent into school. There are several procedures we ask that you follow. Treats must be consumed at school. Only treats that are prepackaged and sealed may be transported to school on the bus. These MUST fit into the child's backpack and stay in the backpack for the entirety of the bus trip. Parents MUST check with Mrs. Foreman, school nurse, to be sure there are no student allergy concerns in the classroom before sending treats in. Failure to comply with these procedures may result in treats being unable to be shared in the classroom.

Transportation Changes

If you have a transportation change, please call the school or send a note in writing by 2:00 pm.

****Students are not allowed to ride home on bus routes other than their regular bus route. Pick ups or drop offs on this same route can be altered. This is a corporation policy.

Visitors

Visitors must make an pre arranged appointment to enter the building, and must sign in with their ID!

Attendance

Consistent attendance is key to educational success. It is important that your child is in attendance each day, unless unable to attend due to illness or emergency.


Reminder about REPORTING ATTENDANCE... Either call the school or email williamsri@rushville.k12.in.us Thank you.
