Spring Glen Elementary School 2020 – 2021 SPRING GLEN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL BOX 1010 GLENWOOD, ALBERTA, T0K 2R0 Telephone: 626-3611 Fax: 626-3750 WELCOME FROM THE PRINCIPAL I am so excited to see you all back this year! We know there are worries and concerns about how this will all take place, but our Division Office and our school have been working very hard to come up with plans that will try and help alleviate some uneasiness about our return to school. We have created a plan that follows Alberta Health and Education guidelines as they stand right now, but as you know things change and if they do, so will we. Because of some of the things we will have to do to have students return to school, it will be a little different around the school. But that is OK! We get to come back to school! MISSION STATEMENT The Spring Glen Elementary School’s Mission is to engage and inspire students and staff to reach their potential as leaders. Together with the community, we will provide a safe, welcoming, healthy, inclusive and supportive learning environment to help all students experience high levels of success. Becoming Leaders Every Day MOTTO We are learning to be leaders We choose to be proactive We think win-win We are a Team Kelly Thomas - Principal 2 Table of Contents Westwind Division Board of Trustees ................................ 4 Staff Assignments ............................................................... 5 Bell Schedule ...................................................................... 6 Absentees ............................................................................ 7 Bullying .............................................................................. 7 Covid Procedures ................................................................ 8 Discipline ............................................................................ 8 Dress Code .......................................................................... 9 Entrances and Halls ............................................................. 9 Fighting ............................................................................... 9 Grade Promotional Procedure ............................................. 9 Gum..................................................................................... 9 Library / Learning Commons ............................................. 10 Lost and Found ................................................................... 10 Lunch .................................................................................. 10 Masks .................................................................................. 10 Nutrition Program ............................................................... 10 Opening Assemblies ........................................................... 10 Recess and Noon ................................................................. 11 Report Cards ....................................................................... 11 Technology ......................................................................... 11 Telephone ............................................................................ 11 Vandalism ........................................................................... 11 Fair Notice Letter ................................................................ 12 3 Westwind School Division #74 Box 10, Cardston, Alberta, TOK OKO 653-4991 Board of Education and Administration Chair ...................................................................

Please make all arrangements necessary so that students will not miss days during the year. During this year, however, we ask all parents to go through the health checklist to assure your child is ready to come to school. Here is the list: Does the student have any new (or worsening) of the following symptoms: Fever Cough Shortness of Breath / Difficulty Breathing Chills Painful swallowing Runny Nose / Nasal Congestion Feeling unwell / Fatigued Nausea / Vomiting / Diarrhea Unexplained loss of appetite Loss of sense of taste or smell Muscle/ Joint aches Headache Conjunctivitis (pink eye) Has the student travelled outside of Canada in the last 14 days? Has the student had close contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19 in the last 14 days? Has the student had close contact with a symptomatic close contact of a confirmed case of COVID-19 in the last 14 days? When a student does miss a day, we would appreciate the parent/guardian to help their child catch up on the work and concepts they missed. The teachers will provide some work for them. We will not be having an attendance incentive this year. For tardiness, attendance is taken by the teacher at the start of the day (8:30) and again at the start of the afternoon classes (12:30). A student will be counted late if they arrive after 8:30 and before 9:00 AM. If they arrive after 9:00 AM they will be counted ½ day absent. They will also be counted late if they leave school before 3:00, and after 2:30 PM. If they leave before 2:00, they will be counted as a ½ day absent.
