Do the kids have snack?

What should my child wear?

We encourage but do not require the children to wear school shirts. If your child wears shoes with laces, please make sure that they can keep them tied. Otherwise, velcro is best. Similarly, if they wear anything with a belt or buckle, make sure they know how to open and close them by themselves. Sneakers must be worn on gym and dance days (Monday and Wednesday). White shirts are required on assembly days.

What is the best way to contact the teacher?

There are several ways to do so. You can write a note in your child's homework book. You can also call the school and ask for the teacher, and they will transfer the call or pass on the message.
