Communication
During the
school year, a weekly newsletter, notices and other communications
will be sent home on Thursdays in the “Thursday Envelopes”.
The newsletter will also be posted on the school website: http://www.lymeschool.org/newsletters.html
Visitors
Parents are welcome to visit
the Lyme School. Please call ahead to give advance notice if you
wish to visit a classroom; your visit will be scheduled at a mutually
convenient time. In accordance with our Emergency Plan, visitors
must sign in at the office and receive a visitor’s pass.
A typical classroom visit does not allow time for parent/teacher
conferences. If you would like to discuss your child's progress
or other matters with your child's teacher, please schedule an
appointment to do so. Teachers are not available for unscheduled
discussions or meetings before school or during school hours.
Volunteers
The Lyme School has long enjoyed
the volunteer service of many of our talented parents and community
members. Our volunteers contribute their time in the classroom,
computer room, transporting students, organizing athletic events,
special programs, cultural events, drama and musical productions,
and in many other important ways. We are very grateful for their
support. If you are volunteering please remember to sign-in at
the office when you arrive and get a visitor’s pass.
Messages from Home
We only give a message to
your child in an emergency. Please make afterschool plans in advance
and avoid calling school with a message for your child unless
absolutely necessary. If there is an emergency, you may call the
school office, 795-2125.
Telephone
For school-related matters
only, a child may use the phone with permission of the teacher
and/or the office staff. Social matters, such as arrangements
to visit a friend after school, need to be made before your child
arrives in the morning.
Curriculum
There are
copies of the Lyme School Curriculum available at the town library
and the school office.
Noncustodial and Co-custodial Parents and Guardians
When possible and legal, following
annual written request to the school principal, the school will
mail to a noncustodial or co-custodial parent, or guardian copies
of progress reports, health data, and special education information
pertinent to the child(ren) of that parent.
Student Progress Reports
There are
four marking periods per year. Family/teacher conferences take
place in the fall and spring. There will be early release days
the week of conferences. Progress reports will be sent in January
and June. See Middle School section for grades 6-8.
