Vacation Policy

VACATION POLICY

We have received many requests for work to be sent home because  of a family vacation scheduled during the school year.  Please keep in mind how important it is that your child is present in school.  Much of the learning in which your child is engaged is hands-on and group focused.  Many of these activities cannot be reproduced  and sent with you to be completed, nor can the experience be replicated upon a child's return.  Others also depend on your child as an integral member of a group.  If extenuating circumstances arise and it is imperative that your child misses school, school  policy is that your child keeps a journal of your travels.  Thank you for your understanding  and cooperation as we work together to make your child's educational experience the best it can be.
