Frequently Asked Questions
H I have created a FAQ section. If for some reason you
question is not answered here, please e-mail me, call
me or ask me when you drop off or pick up your child.
Can I volunteer whenever I want in my child's class?
Yes, as long as you have filled out a volunteer packet from the office and have a valid background check. Once you have been approved you can come as often as you like, as long as your child does not become affected by it. We also do not have volunteers in the classroom until September. This allows us to get our rules and routines down and have the kids comfortable with us. It can take up to 6 weeks to get approved so please fill out packet as soon as possible.
Do I have to attend Parent Teacher Conferences?
Yes, at PHES we have 4 face to face Parent-Teacher Conferences a year. During that time we create an ILP, (individual learning plan), you have to attend and sign the form.
If we go on vacation during school time, does my child need to get work?
Yes, it is a grade on their report card. If you child is going to be absent please let me know, so I can provide the work they are missing.
Does my child need snacks or water bottles at school?
Yes! Your child needs to bring a water bottle filled only with water each day. They also need a healthy snack, teachers do not provide snacks. Please do not send in candy or messy items for snack such as fruit cups. Good suggestions are crackers, granola bars, an apple, grapes, cereal.
What are the school hours?
School begins by 7:45 am. However, students are allowed in as early as 7:30 am. Attendance is sent in by 7:45, so if you are running late you have to drop by the office and get a late pass. School ends at 2:20 pm.
Exceptions are early dismissal days, which will be marked on your month calendar.
What should my child bring each day?
A backpack, with their name clearly labeled on it, a lunch box, snack and any work that needs to be turned in.
How do I know how my child is doing on a daily basis?
Your child will have an agenda and we will be using Class Dojo school wide this year. Information will be sent home about how to use Class Dojo as a parent.
