What do I do when my child is absent?
Call
the Attendance Secretary at 898-0373
prior to 9:00
a.m.
to let her
know why your child will be absent. There is an answering machine at
this
number for your convenience. Be sure to send a note to the teacher when
your
child returns following an absence.
What if my child is going home with a friend or on another bus?
All bus changes must be in writing from the parent. Instruct your child
to bring a note of any bus change to the office at the beginning of the
school day. If a child is going home with another student, both students'
parents must send a note.
What if I want to pick up my child everyday?
There is a sign out book at the side
entrance, closest to the cafeteria. Parents must show positive ID
before the students are release
Will my child be allowed to buy ice cream if I put a lump sum in his/her
cafeteria account?
There are actually 3 accounts: breakfast account, lunch account and
a la carte account. Unless we receive instructions from the parent, the
entire amount is placed in the lunch account. You may pay in advance up to
$99.99 per account. Please write on the check if you would like money deposited
in the breakfast account, lunch account or the a la carte account for any extra items such as: ice cream, juice, extra
milk, extra entrée, etc.
In order
to eliminate confusion, Mrs. Irby, the cafeteria manager, requests that
you list the student ID number and how much money is intended for each
account.
How will I know my child's lunch account is low?
The
cashier gives the student a note with the number of lunches left
in their account when the account gets low. They will send
reminders for a few days, until money has been deposited to the account.
Is there a dress code at TES?
Yes, the dress code is outlined in the Student Handbook, page 5.
