School
Hours
For safety and comfort, children should not
arrive earlier
than 8:20 a.m. Schools are not responsible for
outside supervision
prior to 8:20 a.m. The only exceptions are for
those attending
WHEE, the breakfast program (opens at 8:10 a.m.)
or with teacher
permission. The first bell will ring at 8:30 a.m., at
which time children
may enter the building. Children are considered
tardy if they
arrive after 8:35 a.m. Tardy records appear on
your child's
report card and are therefore part of your permanent
record.

Safe
Driving
Please obey all posted signs and traffic
regulations when driving
on school grounds or near our school.
Remember the one-way
drive is for buses only during arrival and
dismissal times.
Please do not park in the one-way drive one half
hour before arrival
or dismissal.
After-School Plans
Please make sure to send in a note to
your child's teacher
whenever there is a change in your child's
after-school plans.
Unless there is a note, children will
follow their usual after-school
arrangements, i.e., ride the bus, go to WHEE, or
walk home.
Please plan ahead and try not to call the office with changes in
dismissal plans since we cannot guarantee that
telephone messages
will be conveyed to students prior to
dismissal.
Telephone Messages
It is the policy of Smith School not to
interrupt classes to convey
telephone messages to students. We request
that early dismissal
or after-school plans be finalized prior to
students' arrival at
school each day since we cannot
guarantee that telephone
messages will be conveyed prior to dismissal.
If there are
changes in dismissal plans please send a note to
your child's teacher.

Absent or Tardy
Please call the school office before
8:30 a.m. or the voice
mail absence box 232-3334 (box 305) if
your child is going
to be absent or tardy. We appreciate
your consideration in
making this telephone call.
School Closings and
Delays
During an early closing please do
not call the office.
We need to keep our phone lines open. Please make emergency
plans well ahead of time.
When there is a delayed opening on any
school day, all
before-school activities are
cancelled. Please
prepare your children for a snow
emergency or other
emergencies, which require an early
closing. Have a practice
drill just in case, so that your
children know what to do
and where to go if no one is at home. We
will send all
children home under most circumstances.
However, should
there be an instance when children
absolutely cannot be
dismissed, e.g. electrical lines down,
we will keep your
child safely at school.
For snow closings or
other emergency
closings, parents can get information

Visitor and Volunteer
Sign-In
Anyone visiting or volunteering
at Smith School during
school hours must sign
in at the greeter's desk at the front entrance. It is important to know
who is in the building
at all times for security and
safety reasons. Also, if
your child is ill or hurt it
will help us locate you if
you are volunteering in the
school. You will be required
to wear a volunteer or visitor
name badge. Your
cooperation is appreciated and
essential. Only the
front door (on the St. James St. side) will be unlocked
during
school hours. What School Volunteers Can
Do at Our School
One of the most frequently asked questions from
potential volunteers
is, "What can I do that will be useful?" Click
