Report a Daily Absence
We request that parents/guardians call the automated absence line at 759-6159 or report the absence on your Parent Portal online account each day your child is unable to attend school. These services are available for your use before and after school hours. Please indicate the reason your child will not be at school. If your child will be absent due to illness, please include specific illness symptoms. Our Administrative Assistant will follow up on any unexcused absence according to the Student Attendance Policy #430. If a call or previous notification of an absence has not been received by 8:00 AM, (or 12:30 PM for afternoon 4K students) you will be called to determine why your child is not in attendance. This will assure both you and the school that your child is safe.

PurposeFULL People
This month’s focus is Respect. One way to think about Respect is “seeing value in all people and things & treating them with care.” Many people feel Respected in different ways and we hope this month inspires discussions with your family about what Respect means to you and how you can practice it together!

NEW: No Homework Model
After much discussion and research we have decided to move to the “No Homework Model”. We hope this alleviates some additional stress on families and allows for more family time with your child. Research says that homework in Primary school has zero effect on academic achievement. Your child will not be bringing home nightly homework, but will be expected to read 15-20 minutes each night.
Your child’s teacher may be sending home additional items for your child to work on if they did not finish in class. The teacher will be in contact with you if this is the case.

Morning Drop Off
The earliest students are allowed to be dropped off is 7:35am.
AM supervision outside will begin at 7:35am daily on the playground blacktop. The AM bells rings at 7:45am which signals all students to enter school. Class begins at 7:50am.
Running Late Picking Up After School?
If your child is picked up after school after most children/staff have dispersed from the playground, your child will be waiting near the picnic tables on the playground near the corner of the school where there will be supervision until 3:20 PM. In the event that you are late, for the safety of your child, the supervisor will bring them into the office so that you can be contacted.
Leaving for Appointments & Phone Calls During the Day
If your child has an appointment that requires them to leave during the school day, please include a note in the agenda planner. Having the information in the morning will help have your child ready in a timely manner when you arrive to pick them up. When you arrive to pick up your child, please come into the office to sign them out. Your child will be called down at that time, we do not allow students to wait in the lobby for their safety.Your phone calls are important to us! When calling during the school day, please be aware that you may be transferred to the staff member's voicemail if it is during instructional time. We work hard to avoid interrupting instructional time if at all possible. If an immediate message is needed, please let the office staff know and that message will be delivered via note/in person to the staff member.
Thank you for understanding!
What I Learned Wednesday
All Wednesday’s at Electa Quinney will be “What I Learned Wednesday”. The students homework for that day (no other assigned homework) is to reflect on “What They Learned” in the last week. Teachers have autonomy to decide how they want to carry this out which could include students turning something in for reflection or just a share together on Thursday morning after they reflected/shared with family at home on Wednesday. Our hope is to bring an easy prompt for discussion for our students and families!
