You may purchase ice cream for the class from the cafeteria. • Absence Notes: Any time your child has been absent, they must bring a note explaining their absence on the first day of their return to school. • Snacks: Healthy snacks can help boost a child's mental and physical skills. For this reason, we have snack every morning at approximately 9:15. The children will be eating as they work, so snack should be quick, clean and individually wrapped. A monthly calendar will go home letting you know when to send snacks. Some suggested healthy snacks are: • Crackers • Rice Cakes• String cheese• Mini-muffins• Raisins• Bagels • Pretzels• Fruit and/or vegetables• Granola bars• Cereal• Popcorn

  9. Classroom Policies • Personal Items: No toys, games, radios, collectible cards, etc. I will send a note home if there is an occasion when this policy will change. • Transportation: Any changes in afternoon transportation must be sent to school in writing. This is school policy and transportation cannot be changed without written consent for the safety of the children. • Field Trips/Volunteers: Henry County requires Background Checks for all parent volunteers. If you think you want to go on any field trips or volunteer in the classroom, please see the office for a form as soon as possible!
