Lunch Room Expectations

We try to promote a friendly, courteous atmosphere in our cafeteria.  Students are allowed to talk to neighboring students, but loud and distracting behavior is not acceptable.  Students who cannot behave appropriately will eat in the office.  Continued unacceptable behavior will result in contact with the parent.  Each student is expected to show proper respect to the cooks, teacher assistants, and classmates.  

Be sure to eat everything on your tray before going back for seconds.  Seconds will be served only when available. Seconds on fruit and vegetables are free, however, seconds on the main dish may cost even if your child qualifies for free and reduced lunches. Seconds can be charged to the child’s lunch account.

Litter, papers, etc. are to be placed in the trash barrels provided.  Silverware is placed in the appropriate pan and trays placed in a neat pile where the cooks can reach them.  Students will be expected to clean up all trash at the completion of each meal. 

Playground Expectations

We want students to enjoy recess time - but our primary concern is safety.  Because of this, we will follow these general guidelines:

  • All student recesses will be supervised by one or more school staff members.

  • We will expect students to follow directions and treat others with respect.

  • Playground equipment is to be used only as intended (slides are to be used to go down only).

  • Students are not to jump off of or walk on top of equipment.

  • Supervisors may limit the number of students allowed on a given piece of equipment at a time.

  • Rocks, sand, or other objects may not be thrown.

  • Inappropriate language or actions will not be tolerated.

  • NO playground equipment may be brought from home.

  • NO Tackling. 

  • Students not following these guidelines will be provided with a consequence which may include suspension or loss of outside recess privileges.

Holiday/Birthday Celebrations - Treats and Gift Delivery

Room parties are scheduled at Green Acres for Halloween and Valentine’s Day.  Students should get permission from the classroom teacher before bringing treats for a special occasion.    Alternative activities will be provided for those students whose parents wish for them not to participate in these events.  Parents/students are not to distribute birthday party invitations at school unless the entire class is being invited to attend. The school will not accept outside deliveries being sent to school to students for special occasions. Please have your special deliveries (balloons, flowers, candy, etc.) delivered to your home.

Riding the Bus

Students are to ride only on their assigned bus.  If they are not to ride the bus on a given day, please phone the office with this information before 3:00 p.m.  Only students assigned to buses may ride them, unless an exception has been approved by the transportation director.

Students and parents are reminded that riding the bus is a privilege.  Students who choose to behave poorly on the bus are a safety hazard to the other students on the bus and may lose their bus-riding privilege for a period of time.  To make behavior expectations more clear, the following guidelines are in place:

  1. Pupils shall board the bus without crowding or pushing, and shall remain seated while the bus is in motion.

  2. Pupils shall not extend arms, legs, or head out the bus windows.

  3. Pupils shall not talk to the driver while the bus is in motion except in an emergency.  At all other times, voices should remain at a conversational level.

  4. Pupils will not tamper with the emergency doors or any part of the bus equipment nor shall windows be opened except when permitted by the bus driver.

  5. Pupils shall not deface the bus or its equipment.

  6. Pupils shall not fight or scuffle on the bus or throw objects from the window.

  7. Pupils will keep books, lunchboxes, and similar objects out of the aisle of the bus and there will be no eating on the bus.

  8. Pupils must remain seated until the bus has come to a complete stop.

  9. Pupils shall leave the bus in an orderly manner.

  10. Pupils are expected to be at assigned bus stops at the scheduled time and are not to be picked up or discharged at any other stop.

ANY QUESTIONS REGARDING BUSES OR CONCERNS WITH BEHAVIOR SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO THE TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT AT 867-2263.
