Arrival/Dismissal School starts promptly at 9:05 am; dismissal at 3:57 pm. Each Grade level will be assigned designated drop off & pick up areas. There are teachers and bus aides to assist in this process. If you have a change in your child’s dismissal procedure, please send in a note pinned to your child that day and/or call the Hilton Office. Please have your child wear his/her name-tag every day until we get used to their daily dismissal routine.
Backpack Your child will need to bring a bag or backpack to school every day to carry home papers/projects from school. Please check the contents of this backpack daily! I will give each child a Friday Folder to keep any papers that we may have completed in school, as well as any important notes that come from the office or myself. This folder will come home on FRIDAY and needs to be sent back to school every Monday.
Donations The school purchases our school supplies, but if you would like to donate anything to the classroom, we would put it to good use. Please check the tab on this website for Donation suggestions. Thank You in advance! Shoes Your child will also need to have sneakers or athletic shoes to wear on gym and music days. If your child does not know how to tie shoes, it would be helpful (but is not necessary) if he/she has Velcro shoes for gym and music. Play Clothes Please dress your son/daughter in “play clothes.” We will get dirty! We will go outside daily as weather permits and will be painting, gluing, etc. Junior Kindergarten tends to be messy.
Extra Clothes Accidents happen; please supply an extra set of clothes, in a zip-lock bag. Clothes will be kept in your child's backpack. Thanks. Snack Time Please check the class "Snack" tab on this website for more information. Healthy snack suggestions are available on my webpage. Please notify me of any food allergies. Water Much research has proven that water is necessary to nourish the growth of the brain's network system. Please send your child to school with a labeled water bottle every day. They will keep their water bottle in their Snack Cubby. There are filtered refill stations throughout the school.
Towel We will have “Quiet Time” daily. Please provide your child with a washable bath/beach towel to lie on during rest time. It will be stored in his/her locker and sent home on Fridays to be washed. Lunch Your child will have the option of daily Hot Lunch or bringing his or her own Cold Lunch. If choosing Cold Lunch, please send your child to school with a labeled Lunch Sack and a healthy drink. If your child wishes to purchase milk individually, the charge is $.75. Hot Lunch menus are available on the Hilton Website under “For Families” tab Lunch Information. Remind Please see the tab on this website for directions regarding Remind. This is a tool our class will be using. Please follow the specific directions so that you are connected to our classroom communications.
