Birthday Celebrations

Please do not send homemade food. It has to be store bought with the ingredient label present. (No nuts or nut oil)

Please consider bringing non-food item such as scented pencils, erasers, trinkets, etc. to pass out to class.

All birthday items should be dropped off at the office by 1:00pm. Birthday celebrations happen in the classroom the last 10 minutes of the school day.

Transportation

If there is a change in transportation, please email or call the office by 2 p.m. to inform us of the change. If we have no note or phone call, your child will have to go by the daily transportation we have on file.

RAINY DAY DISMISSAL

There are no walkers on rainy days. If your child is normally a walker, you can pick them up in the car line. It will help with our student's safety and with efficiency of dismissal.

Everyday Counts

We all want our students to get a great education, and the building blocks for a great education begin with students coming to school each day.

Attendance patterns are established early – a child regularly missing days in the early years of school will often continue to miss classes in later years, and receive lower test scores.

Arrange family vacations during school holidays so that children miss as little school as possible.

Establish and stick to the basic routines (going to bed early, waking up on time, etc.) that will help your child develop the habit of on-time attendance.

Did you know that attendance rates are used for school state report cards and federal accountability? In 2014-2015 David Elementary had an attendance rate of 97.6%, which put us in Quartile 1 (top rating).
