AlertNow Message: November 27, 2022

Good Evening students and parents!

This is Lauryn Duncan, Principal at Douglass Elementary School with a few announcements for the week.

Doors will open for all students this week at 7:20am and they may report directly to their classroom. Students wishing to eat breakfast in our cafeteria will do so before heading to their classroom. Parents, please remember that our cafeteria stops serving breakfast at 7:45am. Our tardy bell rings at 7:50am each morning. Students arriving late to school must be signed in by a parent at our front desk. Parents, please remember to use the front crosswalk in the mornings to ensure the safety of you and your child.

Douglass Elementary PTO would like to invite all families to the Roll-A-Bout in Eden on Tuesday, November 29, 2022 from 5:30-7:30 pm for our Skate Night! Please remember that this is not a drop off event and an adult must accompany any student attending Skate Night.

Parents, our school’s canned food drive, sponsored by our Functional Skills classes, will begin tomorrow, November 27, 2022. Each class will collect as many canned food items as possible. All donated canned foods must be turned in by December 13th. The class who collects the most items will receive a small prize. We appreciate your help and support with this event.

Also, progress reports will be sent home with your child this week.

Make-up day for Fall Pictures will be Thursday, December 1, 2022.

Parents, it is extremely important that during morning drop off and afternoon dismissal you remain in the right lane for the duration of drop off and pick up. This is to ensure the safety of our students and staff.

Just a reminder, breakfast and lunch are no longer free of charge this year. The cost of breakfast is $2.25 and the cost of lunch is $3.25. If you are interested in completing a lunch form please visit our school website at douglasselementary.org and click on the lunch form link located on the homepage. Lunch accounts can be created and updated by visiting k12paymentcenter.com.

We hope you enjoy the rest of your evening and we look forward to seeing you bright and early tomorrow morning.

Lauryn Duncan
