November Coyote News
Starr Elementary #starrshines
Highlights and Recognition
Dear Families,
There are a million reasons #starrshines. October has flown by and we are looking forward to a wonderful November. This was a month of celebrations and school spirit. Here are a few ways #starrshined:
Our PTO went above and beyond in the month of October to make Starr a special place for our Coyotes. PTO was responsible for coordinating and collecting Box Tops for Education, Spirit Week, and the Scholastic Book Fair. What a great organization. If you are interested in joining PTO please follow this LINK for information about our meetings and goals.
Starr celebrated World Smile Day, Walk to School Day, Safety Week and Coffee with a Cop during October. These days created special experiences and moments for our students.
Our Coyotes traveled near and far on field trips across Richmond and beyond. During October our students visited Brumbraugh Fruit Farm, Civic Hall and Safety Village.
Starr Elementary was also proud to welcome the Mobile Dentist, More than Words, and the Kiwanis Club of Wayne county to our building during the month. We are thankful for the services these organizations provide to our students.
Starr Elementary is truly a community of learners, working daily to educate all students while showing empathy and understanding. More importantly, Starr strives every day to live its mission..."Preparing students for their future, not our past," by teaching 21st century skills and standards through academics, respect, and responsibility.
Sincerely,
Starr Faculty and Staff

General Expectations and Procedures
Students need to be in class and ready to begin their daily activities at 7:50. Our dismissal time is 2:40 on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. We dismiss at 1:40 on Tuesday. Unless it is an absolute emergency transportation changes cannot be made after 2 on M,W,TH, F or after 1:10 on Tues. We need for all our students to be here daily and on time. Attendance is important at Starr. Please schedule all appointments after school hours.
The only entrance that will be accessible throughout the school day will be the front door at 301 North 19th Street. This door will be locked for security purposes. Please press the door bell and we will let you in. All other doors will remain locked for security reasons. All visitors are to report to the office and will be asked to sign in, sign out and wear a visitor’s badge while in the building.
Breakfast will be served from 7:15-7:45.
Please make sure to complete a police background check if you are interested in doing volunteer work for Starr. This must be completed every year.
Safety is a priority at Starr. During drop off and dismissal we ask that all parents and guardians wait outside the main doors to pick up their students and to do their goodbyes. Starr faculty and staff will be waiting each morning to welcome your student and teachers will accompany students through dismissal each day. When we have a two-hour delay, school will start at 9:50. You can access school closings/delays by going to the Richmond Community Schools web site, listening to the radio, or watching television.
