Assigned Teachers
Each family will receive an email on Friday, August 30, 2019 advising the name of their child’s teacher, room number and the door where they are to line up to enter the school at the 8:30 am bell. Kindergarten parents may accompany their child into the Learning Commons on their staggered entry day. Please watch your email for this information.
Parents are invited for coffee on the asphalt playground following the entry bell on the first day of school (and second day for kindergarten parents due to the staggered entry procedures). This event is sponsored by our School Council.
Kindergarten
We will be having a staggered entry format on the first two days of school: Tuesday, Sept. 1 and Wednesday, Sept. 2, 2020. During staggered entry, each kindergarten class is divided in half and each half of the class attends on either the Tuesday OR Wednesday during the normal kindergarten hours. This enables the teachers to introduce students to class routines in a smaller group setting and also allows more opportunity to meet parents and get to know the students.
Kindergarten students will have a staggered entry on the first two days of school as follows:
AM Kindergarten
- Morning students with last names beginning with the letters
- A – K attend on Tuesday, Sept. 1, 2020.
- Morning students with the last names beginning with the letters
- L – Z attend on Wednesday, Sept. 2, 2020.
On staggered entry days, morning (AM) kindergarten students and parents should enter the front doors of the school at 8:20 AM and proceed to the Learning Commons.
PM Kindergarten
- Afternoon students with last names beginning with the letters
- A – K attend on Tuesday, Sept. 1, 2020.
- Afternoon students with the last names beginning with the letters
- L – Z attend on Wednesday, Sept. 2, 2020.
On staggered entry days, afternoon (PM) kindergarten students and parents should enter the front doors of the school at 12:00 noon and proceed to the Learning Commons.
Thursday, September 3, 2020: All kindergarten students will begin regular classes. AM Kindergarten students will attend classes from 8:30 AM to 11:16 AM. PM Kindergarten students will attend classes from 12:09 PM to 2:55 PM.
