Classroom Basics

Snack and Lunch

Second grade students will be having lunch at 1:10. Therefore, we will be having our snack in the mornings. This is a late lunch so it might be best to send a couple items for snack.  I encourage students to bring a nutritious snack to school each day. Due to school policy, please check ingredients to make sure that they don’t contain nuts. 

The snack milk program has been eliminated this year, therefore you may want to send a drink with your child's snack. I also encourage students to keep a water bottle at their seats throughout the day. This ensures that they drink more water and avoids lines at the water fountain. Thanks for your help! 

Lunch tickets may be purchased for cafeteria lunches. Also, if your child forgets his/her lunch or money, don’t worry! Lunch will be provided and a notice will be sent home letting you know your child has borrowed money.

Dismissal Procedures

If your child has any change in his/her dismissal arrangements, please be sure to notify us in writing.  Please note that dismissal changes should not be sent via e-mail. There are times that the Internet is down or that I don’t have time to check it throughout the day. Students must follow their regular dismissal procedure unless a note is received from a parent or a phone call has been made to the office. If you are picking your child up at 3:05, please be sure to specify if you will be meeting your child in the lobby or using the car pick-up option. 

Birthdays

Robinson School has adopted a policy regarding birthday snacks.  In an effort to promote healthy eating habits and respect the individual medical needs of our students, we do not celebrate birthdays with food.  The students will receive a birthday surprise and will be sung to during our classroom morning announcements. Please note that summer birthdays will be celebrated in June. We appreciate your understanding and support as we make every effort to celebrate these special days in a healthy, safe, and fun manner.
