Picking Students Up Late

Parents,

Please remember that school is dismissed at 3:15, and all

staff is off duty at 3:40. Please make arrangements to pick

your children up by 3:30 daily. If this is an issue, please

speak to the YMCA about their after school program here at

Aloe, or make arrangements for your children to ride the

BEE on the lookout for Aloe’s

Spelling Bee information soon

Early to bed, ready to learn

Share this interesting fact with your youngster:

While he or she is asleep, their brain is busy or-

ganizing and storing information learned. Use

these guidelines to help your child get a good

night’s sleep and improve learning and memory:

Elementary school students need 9-11 hours

of sleep---experts recommend a range be-

cause some kids require more sleep than

others. If your child has a hard time waking

up or feels drowsy in school, move to an ear-

lier bedtime.

The light from a computer (or any screen)

can prevent your youngster from winding

down. Have them turn off anything with a

screen at least an hour before bed.
