Housekeeping Items
Email Correspondence - It is very helpful to our school staff and teachers if you include your child's name and grade in your correspondence, many families have different last names or just provide an email, which makes it difficult to determine who the child is.
School Payments - please be sure that all payments to the school are separate, we are unable to make changes and monies go to different organizations (HSA, School, Classroom, Sports Group, etc.) Any funds received as a "grouping" or need, will be returned to the family. We will assume any extra money is a donation.
Deadlines - we can not express enough the need to adhere to deadlines and cut-off dates. Starting October 1st, any payments, notices, etc. that are received after a deadline will be returned to the student. Our school, HSA, and teachers work very hard to ensure that fundraisers, lunch orders, etc are correct, when deadlines are not followed it makes it hard to ensure mistakes are not being made.
Visitors to the school - all visitors to the school including parents, HSA, vendors, etc. are required to sign in at the front desk and receive a visitor's badge. It just provides us another level of safety for our students and staff to be sure that anyone who is visiting the school is allowed to be there and in the event of an emergency an accurate audit of who is in the building.
Late Arrivals - any student arriving after 8 am, without previous authorization, will be marked late. Parents MUST come into the building and sign their child in, students are not permitted to sign themselves into school.
Daily Drop Off - 7:45 - 8:00 AM Thank you for driving safely and being on time.
Recess Equipment: Students are allowed to bring their own recess equipment daily; however, it must be safe and approved by the student's HR teacher and shared at Recess.
Powerschool Access - all students have a PowerSchool account. This is where you will check grades, progress reports, report cards, etc...If you are unable to log in or need your information reset, please send an email to [email protected]org
Cold, Flu, and Covid: To prevent the spread of germs, SLS will continue to deep clean and disinfect all rooms monthly.
