Communications Between School and Home

  1. The FAMILY ENVELOPE, containing weekly newsletter, is sent home each Tuesday and returned Wednesday. Families whose envelopes are missing on the following Tuesday are issued a new envelope at a cost of $1.00 (this is the same for lost report cards). The Principal’s envelope cover sheet is also posted online.
  2. PROGRESS REPORTS are sent home at the midpoint of each report card period. At mid-term, all students will receive a PROGRESS REPORT. This informs students and parents of any deficiency and allows time for improvement.
  3. REPORT CARDS are sent home each trimester for grades 1-8. The report card envelope is to be signed and returned within the week. Kindergarten report cards are issued at the end of the second and third trimester.
  4. CLASSWORK PACKETS are sent home according to a schedule set up by the teacher and are to be signed and returned the following day. These list the pieces of classwork/homework which should be found in the packet. Comments to teachers or responses to teacher’s comments are encouraged at this time.
  5. PARENT-TEACHER CONFERENCES are held a minimum of once each school year, in the month of November. These conferences are arranged by the school. All parents or guardians are expected to attend. Other conferences may be arranged with the teacher during the school year.
  6. APPOINTMENTS with teachers will gladly be arranged when requested. Voice mail messages may be left for a teacher by calling the school number. Teachers will not be called to the phone during class time and private numbers of teachers will not be released. To assure the full attention of the teachers, we ask that parents arrange beforehand all appointments and/or conferences and refrain from making “drop-in” visits and addressing classroom questions to teachers immediately before school, after school, or during the school day.
  7. eMAIL communication between home and school is encouraged, particularly for middle school parents. Email addresses of the school staff are available in the office and on the school website.
  8. HANDBOOKS are given out one per family, and may also be viewed on the school website. Extras or replacements cost $5.00 each.
