The School Based Health Clinic at WBES will be open every day Monday-Friday. The SBHC will offer free COVID rapid testing for Bibb County students and employees. Please screen your children at home for signs of COVID. Students showing signs will not be able to attend school in-person and should not get on the school bus! Visitors/Guests: Parents and school visitors will be required to wear masks or facial coverings when entering the school for any purpose. This includes check-ins, check-outs, etc. Visitors will not be permitted beyond the school office. Only ONE outside visitor will be allowed inside the building for these purposes. Dismissal Changes: Please send a written note in your child's Homework Folder if you have a change in dismissal on a given day. Include your signature and phone number on the note. If you have a last minute dismissal change or urgent request, please call the front office (205) 938-9005. Lunch/Birthdays: Our lunch time is 11:10 am. Due to COVID risks, we are not able to have guests attend lunch with students at this time. We also cannot have treats brought in to celebrate birthdays. However, we will make birthdays a special celebration during our snack time. Snacks: Students are encouraged to have a healthy snack at school each day. If you choose not to send a snack from home, your child may purchase from the snack room. You can send snack money in your child's Homework Folder with a note indicating what it is for. Ice cream is sold for $1 each Friday! Agendas: The school provides each child with an agenda/planner. In this agenda, students write any important reminders and numbers for their behavior. Students record their conduct number for every day. If a student ends the day below 4, I write the reason next to the number that their clip was on. If your child has clipped down, please initial in their agenda. If students move their clip up to 7 they may choose a reward! Conduct Numbers 7- Fantastic Day! 6- Outstanding Job 5- Great Job 4- Ready to Learn **Students start here each day. 3- Think About It 2- Teacher’s Choice 1- Parent Contact *Students lose a conduct point each time their clip is moved down. Monday Folders: Monday folders are sent home each Monday. They contain all graded work from the previous week. Please look over the graded work and sign the included sheet. If there are any grades BELOW 70, you will need to sign those papers and return them in the folder on Tuesday. Online work submitted will only be noted if grade is below 70. Progress Reports and Report Cards will also be sent home in Monday folders. If we are not at school on Monday, the folder will be sent home the following school day. Homework: Students should read every night for at least 20 minutes. I do not assign daily homework. This should ensure that students have time to read each night. Reading at home is essential! Each week a newsletter will be sent home with information about what we are working on in class and when we will have tests. Please study for tests as needed at home. |
