Report an absence
To report your child's absence from school, please call Mrs. Lapp at
631-472-7840 ext. 3003. If you call outside of regular school hours,
please leave the following information on the voicemail: student's name,
grade, and teacher, day and date of absence, and reason for absence.
A parent/guardian must report his/her child's absence each day that the
child is not in school. A written absence note signed by the
parent/guradian must be sent to school the day the student returns to
class.
Please note that the only reason for legal absence is illness of your
child or a critical emergency in your family. All other absences are
illegal. Illegal absences include family vacations while school is in
session.
Accident, Emergencies & Special Health Needs
Please notify the school promptly of any changes in your address,
telephone number, place of employment, doctor, names on your emergency
lists, or special health needs. Updated information allows us to reach
you quickly in the event of an emergency. If your child has an accident
or becomes ill at school minimal first aid will be administered and
parents will be notified utilizing the information on the student's
emergency card. It is important to keep this information current and on
file in the school office.
Student safety is the concern of everyone.
Conferences & Report Cards
Conferences for all students occur in December. Please consult the
school calendar for specific dates. Additional conferences may be held
throughout the year as necessary. Please contact your child’s teacher
whenever you have questions or concerns.
Report cards are issued three times a year for students in all grades.
Student attire
Students are not permitted to wear hats during the school day. Students
must wear sneakers on days they are scheduled for physical education
classes.
Students are expected to be properly and
appropriately attired for school each day. Students who wear clothing
that interferes with instruction and/or distracts others from their work
will be asked to call their parents to bring them a change of clothing.
In cooler weather, students should have jackets to
wear outside for recess, and in warmer weather, students should avoid
wearing flip flops and loose fitting sandals that become hazardous when
playing outdoors.
Lost & Found
Parents are urged to label all coats, sweaters,
backpacks and lunch boxes. Lost items are placed in the "Lost &
Found" trunk in the cafetorium. Please remind your child to take home
all personal belongings each day. Unclaimed items are given to charity
at the end of the school year.
Lunch Program
A lunch program is provided each full day of school.
Teachers take the lunch count at the beginning of the day. If you know
your child is going to be late and will need to order a lunch, please
call it into our office (472-7840) before school starts. Applications
for free and reduced price lunches are available in the school office.
