Two Events upcoming events from Project Connect:
Update - Avoid Dismissal After 3pm - Please avoid dismissing your students after 3pm. Sometimes this is unavoidable, but for the goal of having an efficient and safe dismissal process for all, we need to be able to focus on preparing to dismiss 400 plus K-4 students. Thank you for your ongoing understanding and support!
Reminders:
Absences – please call the front office to report your child not coming to school. Also please note that for our absence to be excused you must provide a doctor’s note.
Early Dismissal – please send a note to school with your student and your teacher will send it to the front office.
Change in afternoon transportation – If your student is not going to ride the bus on one given day and is going to be a walker, please send a note so that both the Teacher and Staff know and can mark it accordingly. This also helps on half days if you are normally an ABACUS student and are not going that day.
Due to safety concerns relating to food allergies and various medical concerns, Attleboro Public Schools does not allow for the distribution or sale of homemade food items during the school day nor sharing of food among students.
During evening events, when parental guardians are present - store bought, baked goods are preferred given the guidance from the city health department. In the event that a homemade food item is provided, a list of ingredients must be posted and available in multiple languages. Parents will use their discretion as to whether it is safe for their child.
Dental Forms have been sent home with your student. All of the Attleboro Public Schools offer an in school dental service provided by CMOHS, Commonwealth Mobile Oral Health Services. The program is designed to provide dental services to students who do not have a dentist that they regularly see. If you want your student to be seen by the dentist, please fill out the form completely, including insurance information. There is no fee to participate in the dental program. The dentist will be coming to Hill Roberts on Tuesday, November12th. Please contact me with any questions.
