The fee should be paid in total at the beginning of the school year unless other arrangements for payment have been made with the school office. All students’ fees are required to be paid by the end of the school year. Year end grade cards will be held if fees are not paid and if fees accumulate over the years a student’s diploma will be held until they are paid. Instead of withholding nine week grade cards for unpaid fees, students will not be permitted to attend field trips if their fees are not paid. Field trips are not a mandatory part of school, but rather a privilege to extend learning in a fun, yet meaningful way. The following fee schedule will be followed to permit students’ attendance on field trips: Example: $40.00 School Fee 1st Grading Period: 25% of total fee paid 1st Grading Period: $10.00 paid 2nd Grading Period: 50% of total fee paid 2nd Grading Period: $20.00 paid 3rd Grading Period: 75% of total fee paid 3rd Grading Period: $30.00 paid 4th Grading Period: 100% of total fee paid 4th Grading Period: $40.00 paid PK-6 SCHEDULE Office Hours are 7:45 a.m. – 3:15 p.m. in grades PK-6.

This form provides all the necessary information (including parental consent) that is required for the school to take action in case an individual emergency arises. This form must be completed yearly and updated when situations change. Updates are imperative to your child’s well being. CHANGE OF ADDRESS OR PHONE NUMBER Please notify the office 419-963-7017 grades PK-6 if you have a change of address, phone number or job change. There are times when the school must contact the home. ATTENDANCE, ABSENCE, TARDINESS We encourage you as parents to have your children in regular attendance if they are to receive the maximum benefit of the educational opportunities offered them. However, during the elementary school years children encounter most of the childhood diseases. Therefore, at these times plus the colds, and flu, etc., we ask that you keep your child at home when ill. It is best for your child and also does not endanger the other children. Please remember that parents or guardians are legally responsible for the daily attendance of their children or wards. Legally a child may be absent from school (excused) for the following reasons: Personal illness/injury Illness or death in the family Observance of religious holidays Required court attendance Emergencies Medical appointments Such good cause as may be acceptable to the principal In order for an absence to be excused please understand that shopping trips, haircut appointments, etc. are not legitimate excuses. It is necessary for parents to call the offices at 419-963-7017 or 1-877-317-2747 PK-6, the morning a student is absent or send a note with a sibling on the morning of the absence. Absences will be considered unexcused unless parents notify the school of the reason. If notification is not received before 9:00 a.m., the school will attempt to contact you by telephone to verify the absence. This is required by the missing and absent children’s act. Parents should send in a note when the child returns to school explaining the cause of the absence if no other notification was given. Students are expected to ask the teacher for make-up assignments the day of their return to school if not requested by the parent on the day of the absence. In general, a student will be given the number of day’s equivalent to the number of days of excused absence 5 within which to make up all work.
