At Edgewood School, the first bell rings at 8:25 am. The second bell is rung at 8:45 am. The children will be marked tardy if they arrive after the 8:40 bell. Please wait outside until the first bell rings. On inclement weather days, you may wait by the main office, in the vestibule by the door we dismiss at, or downstairs by the water fountain in the new wing.
Room 16 will be dismissed by the front door that leads to the front of the building by Roosevelt Place. To avoid confusion at dismissal time, it is essential to let me know, by note, if your child has special arrangements for leaving school (e.g., a lunch date, a play date, and changes in the Kids Base schedule, etc).
Snack
Your child may bring a simple, healthy snack and drink to school daily. Please begin to send in a snack on Tuesday, September 3rd.
A snack should consist of a healthy item such as fruit, crackers, cheese, sliced vegetables, pretzels, or little sandwiches. Remember this is a snack and should only take about five minutes to eat. Please, NO NUTS, CANDY, OR SWEETS.
To reduce our carbon footprint, I'm urging families to use reusable containers, utensils, cloth napkins, and environmentally friendly water bottles.
It is your child's responsibility to bring his/her take-home folder to and from school each day. All paperwork (notices, permission slips, home extensions, etc.) can be found in the take-home folder. Please go through the folder every evening.
Take-home folders are to be returned to the classroom every morning. I check the folders during arrival time each day.
