Things will go smoothly at school, and the staff will be most appreciative if parents follow these simple guidelines:

• Attend monthly parent meetings.

• Maintain a change of clothing at school and label outer clothing, such as jackets and sweaters.

• Parents of infants must keep a supply of the child’s milk or formula, food, diapers and changes of clothes at school.

• Parents of infants and toddlers must also label bottles and cups with the child’s name.

• Keep the school informed about any problems or special circumstances which could adversely affect the child’s progress and/or behavior at school.

• Read and respond promptly to all notices sent home from school.

• Do not permit children to bring either valuable or dangerous items from home to school. The school cannot assume responsibility for valuable items, and we have a policy against dangerous items, including play weapons of any kind.

• Participate in formal parent conferences as scheduled and inform the teacher or the director whenever a concern arises. A parent may request a conference at any time.

• Watch for articles brought home from school and see that they are returned. Many are valuable and belong in specific areas of the classrooms, particularly in our Montessori Pre-K classrooms
