PHYSICAL EXAM
PAGE 11
Children entering a Kansas school for the first time who are 8 years old or younger are required by state law to have a physical exam and/or health assessment form completed and on file in the health room at school. RECESS Weather permitting, recess will be outside each day. During the winter months many days are too cold to hold the complete recess period out-doors, but classes may still take a short break in the fresh air. SCHOOL CLOSING The procedure for closing school due to inclement weather conditions is as follows: The Superintendent will be in charge of making the decision to close school. Parents will be notified via School Messenger, radio and television stations in the area by 6:30 A.M. It is the parent’s decision to determine whether or not their child attends school on any given day due to weather conditions. If a parent chooses to keep their child home due to hazardous weather conditions, it is an excused absence. Parents may pick up their child during the school day, when they feel it is necessary due to weather conditions. SCHOOL PARENT DROP OFF/ PICK UP If you bring your student to school in the morning, please drop him/her off at the North side door front doors from 8:45-9:00 a.m. Student supervision is not provided until 8:45 a.m. Please keep your child safe by having students wait in your vehicle until 8:45 a.m., unload curbside, then proceed around circle drive in a single-file line . If you arrive after 9:00 am, please use the front entrance and come in and sign your child in. Buses park in the West parking lot at dismissal. Please avoid this area from 8:45-9:00 a.m. and 3:50-4:30 p.m. daily to ensure safety and avoid people and cars crossing bus traffic. If you need to pick up children after school, please remain in your vehicle and pull into the pick-up lane by the main entrance. Cars must stay in one lane for safety purposes. At 4:05 p.m. Berryon staff will be present to assist students in walking to vehicles. Please place the school-provided sign in your front window. SCHOOL HOLIDAY PARTIES Periodically during the year, there will be school parties. These parties will be limited to the first 30 minutes or the last 30 minutes of the school day. Room parents in charge of the party will be allowed into the classrooms ten minutes prior in order to set-up. No adults will be allowed in costumes. We encourage our parents to provide healthy snacks such as cheese slices, fruit, veggies and other nutritious snacks. Please do not send items that require refrigeration. If a child is absent from school on a classroom party day due to illness, the child will not be permitted to return to school to attend the party.
