Lower School Information
After-School Arrangements: Reminder for Parents of Students in Lower School
Students in grades Pre-K through 5 who remain on campus after 3:20 must be signed in to extended care or under the direct supervision of an athletic coach, sponsor, an arts director, or a teacher. Student must be picked up promptly at the conclusion of these extracurricular activities or they must sign in to extended care until their parents arrive or until they are dismissed to board the late afternoon bus.
If afternoon arrangements are such that a child is to go home with another student or has other alternate plans, a note stating such arrangements must be sent to Mrs. Casie in the Lower School office and the student's classroom teacher before a child is released into the care of another adult. In addition, we ask that such plans be clarified with your child before coming to school in order to maximize learning time in the classroom and minimize classroom interruptions.
Lower school students who attend athletic events on our campus after 3:25 must be accompanied by one of their parents or another responsible adult.
Change in After-School Arrangements
We know there will be times when your child's after-school arrangements will change. In order to avoid disruptions to the classroom, information pertaining to changes must go through Casie Burley by phone call or via email. She will then pass along the instructions to the classroom teacher. It will be assumed that unless we hear from the child's family directly, the normal afternoon arrangements apply. Requests to talk with a child during class time will not be honored.
Authorized Adults
We have a list of adults who are authorized to pick up each student, including carpool drivers. Please contact Casie Burley, giving her your child's name and the adults you'd like on the list. burleyc@ehsbr.org or 755-2720.
Tardy Students
When children arrive late (7:50 am or later) a parent or other adult must walk in with them and sign in, using the book in the office. Morning Meeting begins promptly at 7:50 am and all students are expected to be in attendance. We ask that students arrive by 7:40 to give them time to put their book sacks away before Morning Meeting begins.
Lower School Cell Phone Policy
Please read the policy regarding cell phone use by Lower School students. If your child has a cell phone at school, he/she must sign the permission notice.
Reporting Absences and Late Arrivals
Please let us know in advance when your child will be absent or late. We need to have an accurate account of all students. You can email or call the office. Casie Burley will then pass the message on to the teacher(s). If you choose to notify the teacher, you should cc Casie Burley. If the teacher is absent, your message may not be received otherwise. In order to minimize classroom disruption, we ask parents to report to the lower school office to check out their children.
