FAQs

🕔 What are the school hours at Teasley?
Students may enter the building at 7:20; however, school officially begins at 7:50 am. If a child arrives after 7:45, he/she must get a tardy slip in the office before reporting to class. School dismisses at 2:15 pm. Parents may not  come to the classroom to pick their child up early. The office will call the classroom for your child to come down. Please remember that early dismissals end at 1:30. All visitors must sign in at the office and obtain a visitor’s badge or sticker any time you will be on campus.
💲 How do I pay for lunch, field trips or ASP?
Lunch- Lunch money can be prepaid in the cafeteria or paid on-line. The cost of a student breakfast is $1.50 and lunch is $2.35/daily. Adult lunch is $3.50.
Field trips etc.- All other money should be sent in a “white” payment envelope with your child’s first and last name, teacher’s name, grade level, amount enclosed and what the money is intended for on the front. Your child will be responsible for dropping this envelope in the black drop box (located outside main office).
ASP- After School Program (ASP) is a prepaid program that needs to be paid using the “Gold” payment envelope. Your child will be responsible for dropping this envelope in the black drop box (located outside the ASP office). Make sure you have filled out a registration form prior to the first day of school.
🍎 Can my child bring a snack to class?
Your child may bring a healthy snack (cereal bar, pretzels, crackers, etc.) to class. We may have students in our class with peanut and tree nut allergies. Please do not send any snacks that may contain peanuts or tree nuts to school. Remember to keep candy or snacks requiring utensils or refrigeration at home. If your child desires, he/she may bring a water bottle to school to have throughout the day. Students are not to bring soda, Gatorade, juice, etc.
💊 What if my child needs to take medication at school?
If your child needs to take any medication at school, including cough drops, an adult must bring the medicine to the school nurse. The medication will be kept and administered by the nurse in the clinic.
📓 What is the procedure for homework?
Your child will be given daily homework assignments. They will write their homework down daily in their agenda. Please sign your child’s agenda DAILY. This ensures that you understand what assignments they have. They will have reading homework Monday-Thursday and will usually have math or another subject nightly as well. I try to keep homework to a minimum.  I use homework as a review of skills we have learned in class. Your child may also be given long range assignments throughout the year that will be more of a project that will be taken for classwork grades. Remember that homework is the responsibility of each child to complete and return to class. Your child will also have a reading log that he/she is responsible for each day (Monday-Thursday).
🚌 How do I change the mode of transportation after school?
Please be sure to indicate your child’s standard mode of transportation in the afternoons on the Student Information Sheet. If your child’s after school transportation changes for any reason, I must have written notification from you. I am not allowed to take emails or remind messages for changes in transportation. This is for your child’s safety and protection.
🤐 What do I do when my child is absent?
If your child is absent from school, please send a note the day of return explaining why he/she was absent. Your child will be responsible for any assignments missed due to absence. Please refer to the Teasley handbook for further information.
🍰 How can we celebrate my child’s birthday?
If you would like to bring in special treats for your child’s birthday, it must be done during lunch time. Please let me know if you are planning to do this ahead of time, so I can make arrangements. Please remember that all treats must be nut/tree nut free and be store bought. If you would like to pass out invitations at school to your child’s birthday party, please give one to all students in our class or wait until a time after school.
