NYS Guidelines Regarding Administration of Medications in Schools
If your child is required to take any medication, please send in a written request from your child’s physician, which indicates the frequency and the dosage of the prescribed medication and is to be brought in the prescribed labeled bottle by an adult to the Health Office. Please do not send any aspirin, cold pills, cough drops, inhalers, etc. to school with your child.

The following are suggested reading allotment times each night:
Kindergarten- 20 minutes
Grades 1,2,3- 30 minutes
Grade 4- 45 minutes

Transportation
You have received your child’s bus number and pick up time in the mail. Be sure your child is at the stop five minutes early and standing quietly.
The bus may be late picking your child up or bringing your child home for the first two weeks of school, as drivers learn the new routes and younger students learn how to get on and off the bus. Sometimes adjustments need to be made to the routes, as well. Your patience is appreciated.
