Arrival: The instructional day begins at 7:40 and ends at 2:55. We ask that your child be dropped off after 7:20 a.m. to ensure adult supervision and no later than 7:35 so he/she will get to his/her classroom on time. If your child arrives after 7:40, he/she will be counted tardy.
Dismissal: Please make sure that your child's teacher is always aware of your child's route of transportation to and from school. If any changes arise, please call or write a note. Teachers have very few opportunities to read emails throughout the day. You may also leave a message with someone in the office at 704-0500 as early as possible. Otherwise, your child will be sent home in the normal fashion. Children can often misunderstand a situation, so we must be contacted by you personally. Further details regarding arrival and dismissal procedures are explained in the Teravista Elementary Parent Handbook.
Lunch: Students will scan their ID badges at lunch and in the library to check out books. Students may bring cash or check to deposit into their lunch accounts. Online payments can also be made through My School Bucks. Click here for more information.
Leaving Early for Appointments, etc.: If you need to pick your child up early, please send a note to the office, preferably prior to the start of the school day. The note should contain the following information:
student's name and teacher
the date
what time the student will be picked up in the office
will student return to school or are they leaving for the day
Birthdays! We celebrate birthdays at the end of the day. Treats are not allowed to be passed out during lunch. Parents can drop off treats for the class at the beginning of the day or drop in at 2:30.
