*************************
This year, I resolve . . . to be involved! 
Many people make New Year’s resolutions for themselves.  This year, you could make a resolution that benefits your kids too – a resolution to become more involved in their education.  Your children are likely to get better grades and be more interested in school.  Here are some ways to get started.

At home:
Establish a daily homework routine.
Talk with your children about their day.
Make sure they have all the school supplies they need.
Read aloud with your youngsters every day.
Praise your children’s school work and their efforts.
See to it that they get enough sleep on school nights.
At school:
Stay in touch with your kid’s teachers. 
Send notes or e-mail if you have concerns. 
Be sure they know how to reach you.

Share a skill, a job, or an interest with your child’s class.
Attend parent-teacher meetings whenever possible.
Encourage grandparents and other family members to get involved too.

BE SAFE/CROSS SAFE!!!!
Parents please always use the crosswalk and/or crossing guard when crossing Brown Street before and after school.  Never cross between cars and busses.  It’s just not safe.  Thank you!!

*************************
Head Lice Alert!
 “Tis the season of head lice, and Pullen has had cases in a few of our classrooms this year.  To avoid spreading this annoying pest, any child with live lice or nits will be sent home for treatment.  When returning to school, each infected child must be checked in at the school office before re-entering the classroom.

*************************
Cold And Flu Season
Please help us stop the spread of colds and flu by keeping children home if they are showing any of the following symptoms:

**A temperature or fever
**Diarrhea or vomiting
**Any suspicious rash
**Stomach ache or fatigue accompanied by other symptoms.
**Headache that persists for more than a day

Please remember to call the school office
to report your child’s absence from school.

*************************
School Appropriate Dress

Now that the warmer weather has arrived it is time to
review the school’s guidelines for appropriate dress:

®Pants and shorts need to be worn on the students’
waist, and no underwear should be exposed
.

®
Shirts and tops are to cover the complete
stomach and shoulder area and again,

no under garments should be showing. 

®Shorts may be worn on warmer days
but must be school appropriate,
not too short.  

®Hats may not be worn inside the school building.

Thanks in advance for helping your child
pick out school appropriate clothing!

*************************

Attention! Attention!

Electronic games, trading cards and other toys should not be brought to school.  They are causing a lot of distractions in the classrooms and at recess.  Thank you for helping us to monitor this troublesome situation.

*************************

Before School Daycare

Supervision on the playground before school begins at 8:20.  There is no supervision for students before that time so please do not drop your children off before that time.

If you need daycare prior to 8:20, there is a School Age Child Care (SACC) program available for a small charge. The SACC program opens each day at 6:45 am.

Call Karen at 775-2340

for more information.
