Class Parties/Celebrations

Flowers, balloons, or other favors may not be delivered to the student at school. Kindergarten classes have several parties and celebrations during the school year. Parents are asked to volunteer to assist with at least two or three of these events. Party favors are NOT allowed. Snacks are sufficient. Please keep arrangements as simple as possible. Please do not bring any other siblings to classroom parties or field trips in which you are involved.

Birthday Guidelines

Birthdays are special celebrations at kindergarten. Invitations may be given out at school if you invite every child in the classroom or all the boys or all of the girls. We will not allow a child to give out “select” invitations. The following guidelines should be followed in exchanging social invitations: ● All boys in a particular class or grade will receive invitations (Boy Party). ● All girls in a particular class or grade will receive invitations (Girl Party). ● All children in a particular class or grade will receive invitations (Boy and Girl Party). ● Invitations are never to be passed out to a few children in another classroom. Please mail these invitations. ● Cupcakes or other simple treats that require no teacher preparation may be sent to school on the student’s birthday. Please give the teacher advance notice of your plans.Party favors are NOT allowed. Snacks are sufficient. Please keep arrangements as simple as possible. ● Children with summer birthdays may adopt a day in May for their early birthday celebration. ● Limousine pick-ups are not allowed at school. ● Group pick-ups are not allowed. All groups must meet off campus for an after school event. PA does not allow “select” group pick-ups. Group pick-ups for the entire class or grade may be scheduled with the principal.

“Show and Tell” and Bringing Toys to School

Teachers may declare specific days as “Show and Tell Day.” If a “Show and Tell Day” is scheduled for the class, the classroom teacher will send notification. At no time should toys be brought to school unless they relate to the teacher’s assignment. Expensive toys should never be brought to school for any reason.
