March 26 ~ Make-up Snow Day
This week is national school breakfast week. So
take a minute to say thanks to our wonderful cafeteria staff.
The DSTP will
begin this week. Wednesday and Thursday are testing days and Friday is
a make up day. Next week March 15th and 16th are
testing days as well. Please make sure that your child gets plenty of
sleep, is well rested and has a good breakfast.
The time change also takes place on Sunday March 14th.
Please try to prepare your child by going to bed early several nights in
advance to make the transition easier as we will still be testing for
the DSTP.
"W.B. Simpson Student Council is collecting new and
barely used children's books as donations to help spread the love of
reading. Once collected, these books will be redistributed to students
throughout our school during the Family Fun Night celebration on May
6th. Donations can be dropped off in Room 23 until April 1st. The
Student Council appreciates everyone's continued support."
"Do you have old ink or toner cartridges laying around? Want to help
the Student Council? If you answered yes, then we can help. In an
effort to 'Go Green,' the W.B. Simpson Student Council will
begin recycling all your old and/or used ink and toner cartridges
beginning March 2nd through the remainder of the school year. For each
cartridge collected, the Student Council can earn up to $3. All money
raised will then be used to continue making W.B. Simpson a positive and
productive environment for all students."
Spring pictures will take place on Friday March 26th.
The March 26th furlough day has been
changed to a regular school day for students due to the snow days.
Home Access Center
is up and running. If you are interested in gaining access to Home
Access Center, please call Ms. Legates in the office at 697-3207 to set
up an appointment. She is available for appointments between 9:00 and
12:00 and 1:00 and 3:30.
Should your child run a fever,
it is very important to keep them at home until they are feeling better
and their temperature is below 100 degrees for 24 hours without have
receiving a fever lowering medication such as Tylenol or Ibuprofen.
You can call our nurse, Mrs. Hoffmann, at the school if you have further
questions.
Our doors open at 8:15 am. Dismissal begins at 3:15
pm. This is a change from last year as we are starting 5 minutes
later. Please do not drop them off before 8:15 AM as they are not
supervised before this time.
Parents are not permitted to drive into the
roundabout in front of the school at the beginning of the day or at
dismissal. Only buses are permitted during those times.
If you are dropping or picking up your child in
the morning or afternoon at the side of the building with the circular
parking lot please do not get out of your vehicles. This is a drop
off and pick up area only. If you need to go into the building or
if you want to pick your child up at the door please park in one of the
assigned spots or on Old North Road.
