    TK/KINDERGARTEN DRESS CODE
    Please dress your child in clothing he or she can independently handle in the bathroom. If your child cannot tie his/her own shoes, please send him/her in buckle or Velcro shoes until he/she learns. For your child's safety on the playground, we recommend shoes or closed toe sandals (no flip flops, please).

    WHAT TO BRING TO SCHOOL EVERYDAY:
    Your child will be receiving a mailbag for transporting papers from the teacher.  This bag is to be brought to school and brought home everyday.  In TK and kindergarten, students do not need a backpack, the classrooms do not have the space for backpacks.

    The first 6 weeks, the kinder students will only have snack at school.  Please bring a lunch box with a snack and water. Once the tk-ers and kinders go full day, bring snacks and a lunch for the day.

    SNACKS AND LUNCH
    In keeping with our district's wellness policy, we ask that you provide your child with a healthful snack and lunch each day.

    SUPPLY LISTS
    A suggested supply list may be found as part of the Orientation packet or on the Cumberland website.
     

    Supplies can be given to your child's teacher at any time.  The first day of school is overwhelming for your child and the teacher, therefore bringing them on another day is a good choice.  Again, this is only a suggested list, not mandatory!!!
