If at any time your family’s contact information changes, notify the school so you will not miss out on notifications. 90-minute delay: Doors open for students at 10:15 am. No breakfast will be served. Students will be marked tardy starting at 10:45 am. 6 DAY CALENDAR ROTATION Fruitland Primary School operates on a six-day rotation schedule. Days are identified as A, B, C, D, E, and F. Therefore, the first day of school will be an A-day. The daily cycle will follow sequentially regardless of day(s) missed for holidays, weather, etc. Your child’s teacher will send home information during the first week of school that will inform you about which days your child has special area classes such as physical education, art, music, and media. This will allow you to know which days your child will need to wear tennis shoes for physical education. VISITORS TO SCHOOL When anyone visits a school in Wicomico County, they must first stop and check in at the school office and present a valid ID. This is most important for the protection and safety of all students. This reminder is posted at each entrance door of our school. Remember that the education and safety of children are our first concerns. All visitors must be “buzzed” at the front entrance. The RAPTOR System is utilized as part of the check-in process for all school visitors. Each visitor is required to swipe their driver’s license or a valid State ID Card at the school visitor’s kiosk located in the main office. Only with successful identification through the system will a visitor pass be printed and further access to the school granted. The RAPTOR system will be utilized for all school events and scheduled appointments. We ask that you wear your visitor pass in a highly visible location throughout the duration of your visit to the school. To keep potential interruptions to instruction at a minimum, all school events, appointments will be open only to those 18 years of age and older, who are listed as a contact in parent portal. VOLUNTEER PROGRAM There are many opportunities for you to become involved in our school. A volunteer coordinator will match parent availability with school and teacher needs. All interested volunteers must complete a volunteer application prior to receiving volunteer assignments. Each visitor is required to swipe their driver’s license or a valid State ID Card at the school visitor’s kiosk located in the main office. FIELD TRIPS A single class, grade level, or combination of classes may take field trips. They are not, however, required. Field trips are planned at the discretion of the teachers and must be curriculum oriented. When trips are planned, it is important that all members of the class attend, regardless of ability to pay, as learners will participate in lessons as they prepare for the trip and as they return from the trip. A signed permission slip from a parent or guardian is required for all field trips. Cost of the field trip is determined by the number of people going on the trip, the admittance fees, and the bus costs. If your ability to pay for your child’s experience creates a real challenge for your household, please contact Ms. Rainbow, assistant principal, and request a waiver of the fee for your family.
