Students are encouraged to bring in a healthy snack. I do not allow chocolate, candy, or cookies for snack, please save these for an after lunch dessert. \u00a0Some ideas of healthy snacks are: fresh or dried fruits, vegetables, crackers, pretzels, granola bars, cheese, etc. \u00a0Make sure they know it is their snack and not their lunch.\u00a0 Mark it \u201csnack\u201d or use a different container other than their lunchbox.<\/p>\n<h1 class=\"entry-title\">Water<\/h1>\n<p class=\"entry-title\">We have a water fountain in our room as well as right outside our room. \u00a0However, if students would like to bring in a <strong>water<\/strong> bottle they may as long as the lid closes completely! I do not allow anything but water in the room, spills happen on a daily basis and anything but water creates a sticky mess and unwelcome critters! There is a refill station right outside of our classroom that students may use.<\/p>\n<h1 class=\"entry-title\">Parent Volunteers<\/h1>\n<p>We are located in room 213. You are always welcome to volunteer or visit our classroom. Please remember that any parent who wants to volunteer needs to stop into the office to fill out a background check. It takes a week or so to process, but it is good for a few years. ALL parents who wish to participate in classroom parties or field trips must have this done.\u00a0 This is for the safety of our children.\u00a0 I encourage everyone to come in to the front office and <strong><em>complete this paperwork<\/em><\/strong> early in the year!\u00a0 Many parents have already done this, but you may want to check with our secretary to ensure your paperwork has not expired. We encourage and love parents to join us in school to help out and learn along with us. Thank you in advance for giving all the children your time!<\/p>\n<h1 class=\"entry-title\">Book Check Out<\/h1>\n<\/header>\n<header><\/header>\n<header class=\"entry-header\">Once a week your child will be able to visit the school library! We are so excited, but please help your child handle and care for the books in a respectful and responsible way. Your child will be able to take his or her book home each week and return it on the next week. Please help your child to be prepared and responsible for library check out! \u00a0Students are not able to check out a new book until the old book is returned. <span style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">Please do not let younger siblings handle the books.
