  • If your child has medicationplease make sure the nurse has it so that we are prepared for the trip. Please make sure any required forms are filled out.
  • If you are chaperoning our trip, please park to the side of the bus lot to not block in the buses when we’re ready to depart.  Please plan on following the buses on Interstate 64 to help at rest stop(s) along the way for bathroom breaks. You may also carpool with other chaperones. 
  • Chaperones, please make sure you have completed the Volunteer Registration/background check process with the office.
  • Reminder- chaperone responsibilities are:
    • Drive to and from Jamestown and follow the school bus to help us at rest stops(s) along Interstate 64 if/when we need to stop for bathroom breaks.  If your child rides home with you, please still follow the bus as we’ll need help at the rest stop(s) on the way home with our students.  
    • Manage a small group of students throughout the day on tours, trips to the bathroom, etc. Contact teacher in case of emergency
     As a school, we are working hard on social-emotional education. In fourth grade, we began lessons during morning meeting that concentrate on these goals. The second book in the series of lessons is My Secret Bully. 

Please ask your child about:
  • What kinds of things we are doing to keep our classroom safe and friendly so that everyone will feel welcome and want to come to school every day?
  • What bullying is?  
  • Why it's not okay to leave someone out on purpose?
  • What ways we can make sure everyone has someone to play with at recess or eat with at lunch?
