Students' Forgotten Items: Best Practices
As we settle into our routines for the school year, we are kindly requesting that students remember to bring all necessary belongings to school with them in the morning, including water bottles, school materials, and musical instruments. Parents are of course welcome to bring necessary forgotten items like lunch boxes, glasses, etc. That being said, we have multiple water fountains around campus if your student has forgotten their water bottle. Additionally, Mr. Bonneau has extra musical instruments in his classroom should your student forget theirs at home.
We would like to minimize the amount of times students are called out of class to retrieve their forgotten belongings. Thank you for ensuring that our school day runs as smoothly as possible, and please continue encouraging your students to be responsible for their belongings!
