Report Cards:  Report cards are issued every nine to ten weeks.  These reports reflect the progress your child has made toward various kindergarten objectives and uses a grading system that reflects the developmental nature of kindergarten learning.

Recess:  The children will play outdoors for about 25 minutes after lunch each day (unless it is raining or too cold). Please keep this in mind when helping your child to select clothing for the day. If your child is too sick to play outside, he/she is too sick to come to school. There is no lunchtime supervision available for children to stay indoors at lunch. Additional afternoon recess will be at my discretion.  If your child has a medical reason for not participating in recess time, he or she MUST bring a note and your child will sit outside the nurse’s office during recess time.

Restroom breaks:  students will have several opportunites to visit the restroom facilities throughout the day.  I do request that students use the restroom shortly before coming to school.  We will go to the restroom midmorning, again before lunch to prepare for lunch, after lunch during our quiet listening time, and during milk/snack break in the mid afternoon.  Students will potentially have the opportunity to go the restroom during centers/workstations time, but this will take away valuable time for learning and growing.  Students will not be allowed to leave the room during instruction unless it is an emergency.  Please let me know if your child has any special restroom concerns or health issues.
