September
Traffic/Safety
Arrival: Thank you for doing such a great job moving the express car drop line along. The students have been exiting the cars quickly.
Dismissal: As always, please be very careful driving past the school at dismissal time as we have a lot of children, adults, dogs, and strollers using the sidewalk and crosswalks. If you are a pedestrian, we ask that you use the crosswalk as we have a staff member there to help with traffic.
Welcome to a new school year at Hanover Street School. Here are some suggestions to start the year off on the right foot:
Make sure your child comes to school with a water bottle.
If your child has an injury or other medical condition, please let the nurse and teacher know so we can help keep your child safe at school.
If your child is blowing his or her nose A LOT, coughing A LOT or just complaining of not feeling great, please consider keeping your child at home to rest.
Please practice good hygiene. Show your child how to wash hands. Model how to sneeze or cough into your elbow.
Your child should not carry around any medication in his or her backpack. If your child needs to take medication at school, please contact me.
Be sure to take your child to his or her medical provider’s office at least once a year for a physical. Elementary school children should also visit a dentist two times a year, and children should have a professional eye exam.
If you need assistance with medical care, dental care, vision care, clothing or food, please reach out to me. We have many wonderful community resources. I look forward to partnering with you to best support your child and family during this school year.
Take good care,
