We look forward to welcoming you and your student to our Curriculum Night/Open House on Monday, 9/30 from 6:00-6:45. This is an opportunity to see and hear all the ways your student is learning. When you arrive please enter through the main office of Elm Street School. If you have any questions in advance, please don't hesitate to contact me.

payments can be made online: www.myschoolbucks.com

I am still seeking a volunteer if you are interested in creating our 2024-2025 Friendship Directory. This is a resource to connect families by providing information so you (and your kids) can make connections. Participation in the Friendship Directory is voluntary and a paper copy will be sent home with your child once it is complete.

Please label all of your child's clothing and be sure their footwear is appropriate for our playground . Sneakers or close toed shoes are best for running, jumping, playing, and riding tricycles. As the colder temperatures approach, be sure to label coats/jackets and when the time comes, MITTENS are highly preferred over gloves!

A few reminders:

• If there will be someone new picking up your child, please email your child's teacher in advance with that person's name and relation to the child. The person must have identification at the time of dismissal.
  
• In the morning, our doors will close by 8:50. If you are late and the doors are closed, please drive to the main office entrance of Elm Street School. They will call your child's teacher and a staff member will walk them to class.
  
• A reminder to please drive slowly when on school grounds at all times. This is for the safety of our students and staff.
