Photos: We try to take lots of pictures throughout the year and include them on our home link, website, and/or facebook account. If you would like to OPT your child out of being in pictures being featured in any of these platforms please email Terri Gilbert (gilbertt@chelmsford.k12.ma.us) and Jayson Ramalho (ramalhoj@chelmsford.k12.ma.us) by September 13th, 2024.
Food Services: This year Massachusetts is offering all school lunch and breakfast at no charge to students. This year, families DO NOT need to register online for their child to enjoy breakfast. Students will be given the option each day. If you DO NOT want your child to participate in the breakfast program (OPT OUT), please be sure to communicate this information to your child's teacher. If you decide to opt out, please also have a conversation with your child. This will be a tremendous help.
Bus Reminder: Students are not permitted to switch buses, and are only permitted to ride what is printed on their bus pass.
Visiting the Building:
- Late Arrivals and Dismissals: If your child is arriving late or being dismissed, we kindly ask you to buzz into the main office. A staff member will either come out to get your child or bring them to you. If you know you will be late or picking up early, we kindly ask you to inform the main office staff (Debbie and Kim) by email as well as the classroom teacher.
- If you have an appointment in the school, are volunteering, or are dropping off something your child, our secretarial staff will buzz you into the building. If you are volunteering, please be prepared to present your ID. Please make sure you label any items you are dropping off with student first/last name and teacher, if possible.
- Please report changes in dismissal to the main office by 2:30pm
Student Expectations:
- During the first few weeks of school, our students will be learning about school-wide expectations based on our school-wide passport.
- Expectations will be taught for each location in the building
- During the first (2) weeks of school, students will travel with their assigned recess aide to various outdoor locations at recess time. This opportunity is designed for our aides to develop relationships with their students, teach expectations for all locations, and allow students to develop positive relationships with their classroom peers.
Volunteering: If you are interested in volunteering in our school (should an opportunity present itself) please be sure to contact Mrs. O'Neill or Mrs. Sepe to make an appointment to fill out a CORI form. All volunteers must have a CORI on file to volunteer.
