We are thrilled to share the excitement about our beautiful new multipurpose room, which will serve as the space where all our 1st-4th grade students will enjoy their lunch this year. This wonderful addition to our school provides a comfortable environment for students to gather and eat together.
As we transition into this new space, we have established a set of expectations to ensure that lunch is a positive and respectful experience for everyone. During the lunch period, we ask that students follow these guidelines:
Be respectful to all students and staff
Use a Level 2 voice (a normal speaking voice)
Clean up their space after eating
Listen and follow the directions of the adults in the room
Walk with safe feet when moving through the room
Remain seated at their table
Raise a hand if they need something
We understand that learning and practicing these expectations will take time, and part of our role as educators is to teach and reteach behaviors that contribute to a safe and enjoyable lunch period. If a student needs more than two reminders about these expectations, they will be asked to sit at a different table within the multipurpose room. This will provide them with a moment to reflect on their choices. The following day, they will have the opportunity to sit with their friends again.
We appreciate your support in reinforcing these expectations at home and look forward to a fantastic year in our new space.
