Notes to Parents


School Uniform
We are now in Summer Uniform as of April 1st. This consists of tan khaki/navy blue/grey bottoms (long bermuda-style shorts, slacks, skirts, jumpers), white collared shirts, and navy blue/grey/red sweaters. Lace up shoes or Crocs/other Teva-style sandals are okay.

Labels, lunches, and lost and found
Please remember to label all of your child's clothes on the inside tag of the garment as well as backpacks and lunch boxes. Lunch boxes are now placed upon arrival in the "lunch box drop" basket by the sign up sheet. This helps to get the lunches out in a speedy fashion before recess.

There is also a lost and found area above the mailbox system in the hallway where the kids hang up their things. Please check it frequently for lost items. Please also help us to control "lost" items at school by not allowing your child to bring toys, etc. from home. We reiterate that it would be sad for him/her if his/her special item gets lost or broken.

Mailboxes
Please check the mailbox system daily either at drop-off or pick-up. Your child has a folder in his/her slot with work, information on upcoming events, and announcements. Please be sure to leave the folder behind in the mailbox.

Tuition
Tuition is due by the 5th of each month. Please give your tuition check to either Miss Dawn, Miss Terri, or the "Tuition basket" on the sign-in table. Starting next month, invoices will be left in your child's folder. We do not mail out invoices.

Rules about Special Events at School
Due to state laws and fire codes, we have specific rules about how many children are allowed per adult in the school building at one time. Of course this is already taken into account with our staffing on a normal school day. For special events, we love to have all children join us for whatever special event has been announced for a given day, however, if your child does not normally attend school that day we must ask that you stay with your child for the duration of the event. So, please know that when we specify "All Welcome", this means with parent supervision for those not scheduled on that day. Thank you for your understanding.

Emmanuel Parking Lot
Parents please note that it is okay to park in the parking lot across the street from Emmanuel Church while dropping off/picking up your child or during school events.
