THANK YOU MR. DAVIS

   We would like to thank Mr. Davis for another wonderful Dover School concert.  We are very fortunate to have Mr. Davis among our staff – his hard work does not go unnoticed!  Great job!

 

SNACK PROGRAM

   Just a reminder that the “Grab and Go” snack program began this week.  If you would like your child to receive a snack on any given day – send them with a dollar and they will take it to the kitchen at 9a.m., give it to Jim (our chef), pick up their snack and take it back to their room.  If they are signed up for breakfast, they immediately go down to breakfast upon arriving at school, have breakfast and return to their classrooms.  The snack program is not part of the free or reduced program – if you qualify for free or reduced, you must still remember to bring the $1.00 for snack.  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call the school.  Also, if you have ideas to share – healthy snacks your child likes, etc. please share that will us!

 

OOPS – HEAD LICE!

   We have heard that head lice is in one of our neighboring schools, and possibly in our area.  Please stress to your children not to use combs, brushes, hats, headbands, etc. that belong to others.  Also, please notify us if you find anything on your children so we can be on top of things here at school.  We will be checking students here sporadically.  Thanks!

REMINDER

   Just a reminder to parents - do not drive up in front of the school to drop/pick up students (unless you have permission from Mr. Anton).  All students should be dropped off or picked up in the parking lot.  Students only look for busses in this area, so often do not look before bounding into the driveway to run to their car in the parking lot.  Safety is number one – please help keep our students safe!

 

 

 

NOON RELEASE/NO SCHOOL

   On Feb. 11^th students will be released at noon.  Lunch will be served prior to dismissal.

Winter break begins Feb. 22^nd.  Students have that week as well as March 1^st and 2^nd off.  March 2^nd is Town Meeting.  Students will be return to school on March 3^rd.  On March 11^th, there will be a noon release.  Once again, lunch will be served prior to dismissal.

 

SCHOOL BOARD MEETING FEB. 1^ST

   The Dover School Board will meet Monday evening, Feb. 1^st at 6:30p.m.  We wanted to remind parents that they are always welcome to attend these meetings.  They are usually held the first and third Monday of every month.  However, there are times (such as this month) that they could vary.  Please see the School Board bulletin board just inside the school on the right hand side.  This is where agendas and board minutes are posted.  Agendas always list the date and time of the meeting.  Come join us!

 

NOTES TO SCHOOL

   Please remember to send a note to school if you change your child/children’s end of the day transportation plans.  No student may automatically go with another student or parent at the end of the day without written permission.  If you plan to pick your child/children up when they usually take the bus, we prefer you send a note to school indicating this as well.  We realize there are times when plans change during the day.  At times like these, phone calls are fine.  Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation! 

 

MENU/ENVELOPE ATTACHED

   Attached is the next breakfast/lunch/snack menu.  The envelope with payment is due on Wednesday, Feb. 3^rd.  Please be prompt so we have an accurate count.
