| Dear Parents: |

1. NO BULLY WEEK:
This week is full of events to focus on a safe
environment here at Nativity. On Wednesday evening at 6:45 p.m.
Nicholas Carlisle
will present a NO BULLY workshop for the parents. Also the
students have a fabulous workshop being presented to them by Soul
Shoppe on Thursday. Each grade has done an awesome job on
decorating the classroom doors with themes such as honesty, cooperation
and caring. Please feel free to come in and see them. Our
awareness is a key component to helping our students show respect for
all.

APPOINTMENTS, ABSENCES & LEAVE OF ABSENCE PROCEDURE: There
has been quite a bit of confusion regarding our procedures for the
above
so we thought a brief review would be helpful:
- If your child has a dental/doctor appointment during the school hours
and must leave, please send a note with
the student either prior to or on
the day of the appointment so the teacher has advance notice.
Calling into the office on the day of the appointment only delays
having your child ready and the teacher may not have time to put the
homework assignment together.
- Whenever your child is not coming to school due to illness or other
reasons, you should call the office before 9:00 a.m. A phone call
to the office must be made even though you may have spoken or emailed
the teacher.
- If you have prior knowledge of an upcoming absent day please send a
note ahead of time with the student. This will save a phone call on the
day of the absence.
- Also, please note that whenever a student is taking a personal leave (missing 3
or more days of school for personal reasons - not an illness) a "leave
of absence" form must be filled out and turned in to the office prior
to the absence. This form is available in the school office or
can be downloaded from our website.
