In order to protect the integrity of the learning environment, we ask that you not go directly to your child’s class to deliver a message. If it becomes necessary to deliver a message to your child during the school day, please call 707-887-2279 or come by the school office. Please make arrangements for lunch, car pools, babysitting, etc., with your child BEFORE he/she leaves for school in the morning. In the event of an emergency or change of plans, the office staff will relay messages to your child’s teacher. Please do not ask the office staff to contact your child or interrupt a class for messages that are not critical.
Lunches and homework brought to school by parents should be left at the school office and office staff will contact your child to get his/her lunch or homework. Please do NOT interrupt the smooth process of class to deliver a forgotten lunch or homework. Children will not be allowed to use the phone to ask parents to bring forgotten homework. Learning to take responsibility for getting homework to school is an important part of your child’s growth. It is important for children to take personal responsibility and shoulder the consequences if need be.
The school phone is to be used for business and emergency purposes only. It is available for use only with permission of the teacher or office personnel. Students will not be allowed to use the phone for such reasons as asking permission to visit a friend, staying for a recreational program, etc. These arrangements should be made beforehand.
The staff of the Forestville Union School District is concerned that parents are well informed about school activities. All regularly scheduled events and holidays are in the Calendar section of the website. In addition, classroom teachers have regular communication, which comes home with the students. Please check your child’s backpack for newsletters and other school communication on a regular basis.
