Horizon Families,

Plymouth School District is now requiring anyone (parent, guardian, grandparent, etc.) who is interested in volunteering, chaperoning a field trip, or joining for lunch to complete the ACT 89 Training; an online video that takes approximately 20mins, followed by a Google Form submission.

Once complete, the training is valid for the current school year. We are sending this now so that you can complete at your convenience and not feel rushed as family-friendly events start taking place and fall Field Trip permission slips go home. Please pass along to any individuals that you think may be coming into Horizon this year. We appreciate your cooperation!

Bicycle Safety

Students who ride bicycles to school must observe the following rules to ensure the safety of all the students:

1. Students must obey the rules set by the city for bicycle safety.

2. Students riding their bicycles will be required to follow the direction of the crossing guard when crossing the street. Bicyclists are to walk their bikes across the street at crossings.

3. Bicycles are not to be ridden on school property, nor are they allowed to interfere with walkers.

4. Bicycles brought to school must be kept in the bicycle rack provided by the school. The area police department recommends using locks to secure the bicycle.

5. The school is not responsible for the theft or damage of bicycles on school grounds.

6. We recommend that students in kindergarten and first grade do not ride bicycles to and from school alone.

7. These same rules apply to scooters, skateboards, and roller blades.

Remember… Be a smart bicyclist… Wear A Helmet!

As temperatures begin to fluctuate, please help your child come to school prepared for changing weather conditions. Having a jacket, sweatshirt, hat, or gloves available will help ensure they are comfortable and ready for both the school day and recess.

All sorts of accidents happen in elementary school. Please be sure that your child has fresh pants, shirt, socks, and underwear available for them at school if needed.

PARENTS AND TEACHERS FOR HORIZON (PATH)

PATH is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit Parent/Teacher Organization that focuses on fundraising so that our students & staff

may go on free field trips. PATH also supplies educational items in the classrooms or for the school as a whole. 100% of the money raised by PATH goes directly back to students/staff at Horizon.
