Let the FUN & LEARNING begin!
Best year yet!
Just a few first day reminders:
Attendance: The first week of school you will not do attendance in the computer you will turn in a paper copy in your attendance folder. We will do a 20 day count. You will have a class list in your color attendance folder, and this is how your attendance will be done for the first 20 days.
E1 only the first day you see the student. It does not matter if you saw them at Open House, they physically must be in your class to mark them E1. Everday after E1, you will place a check mark if they are here and A if they are absent.This needs to be turned in to Mrs. Jones by 8:45a.m.
Transportation: Ask students in the morning how they are getting home today. Report any transportation issues to the office in the morning (not after lunch). Please tag students' book bags with bus tags before lunch and let us know if you need more tags.
Dismissal:
Car riders: We will call over the intercom for car riders at 3:05. Do NOT send any students until we call for them. Please speak with your car riders about waiting patiently and quietly in the area designated for their grade level and listening for their name to be called. There should be NO PLAYING out at car pool. Remind them if they have another sibling at SBES, they should all be together in the grade level of the youngest sibling. Do not wait outside your classrooms, then you will not hear announcements or when we try to call your room needing a student.
Walkers & After school: We will call for walkers and after school care at 3:15. Walkers report to the lobby. Lori & Suellen will be taking care of walkers this year. After school care kids need to report to the cafeteria.
Buses: This week will we load buses starting with kindergarten and working our way up by grade level. Please wait (inside your classrooms) until called so that it is not a cluster:) The buses should be in the following order: 100, 432, 433, 48, 44, 96, 27, 465.
Please make plans to stay late ~4:30 the first week to ensure that students get home safely.
EC: EC resource teachers will not begin pulling students until Wednesday. The EC teachers will pop in/out of rooms to check on the EC students but will not begin services until day three so that the students can learn their gen ed classroom procedures.
Cafeteria: Please make sure that students have their cards. Lining students up by menu choice before leaving the classroom will speed up the process. The cafeteria tables will be numbered, please go in order and fill up the tables before moving to the next. Each class is expected to clean up after themselves and to have a couple assigned table washers. Please do not use hand sanitize while in the lunch line, we have a cafeteria worker allergic. Please stick to the schedule. A few minute delay by each class will put our last students eating close to 2pm. Be considerate.
Walkies: Don't forget to carry them out to recess and make sure they are on and the volume is up. Please do not have the walkies on in your classroom. This is very distracting to learning! SMILE< BREATHE> WE'VE GOT THIS!
