Bloomingdale Avenue School Handbook |
Dear Parent/Guardian: Welcome to Bloomingdale Avenue School. School staff and parents must work together in order for our children to have the best education possible. Shared information is basic to such a partnership. This handbook is designed to acquaint you with basic school procedures and policies. Additional information regarding both student and parent activities and meetings will be distributed monthly via the classroom teacher and PTA Newsletter. Of course, it isn't possible to cover in the handbook all the questions that you have, and sometimes the information given must be rather general. So, if you have any questions unanswered by this handbook, we hope that you will contact your child's teacher or our office. We look forward to working with you to promote positive learning experiences that will help your child realize his/her maximum potential. Yours truly,
IMPORTANT TELEPHONE NUMBERS Main Office 709-6969
Bloomingdale Avenue School is a K-2 school dedicated to providing a child-centered, nurturing environment for young students. Our goal is to develop a strong foundation of cognitive, affective and physical education in partnership with parents and community. The outcome of our combined efforts will be students who will be enthusiastic life long learners and caring members of the community. Ongoing education is a priority among staff and parents. Staff members are involved in year-long professional development activities to increase and enhance the teaching skills and meet the individual needs and various learning styles of students. Techniques designed to increase students' ability to communicate, develop basic concepts, and think critically are major priorities. In addition, the staff is committed to parent education that enhances parent ability to support classroom instruction. The curriculum offered is fully integrated and aligned with the State Core Curriculum Standards and Curriculum Frameworks. Materials and equipment are updated annually relative to curriculum guidelines. Supplemental instructional activities, such as assembly programs, class trips, and family programs are considered additional opportunities to augment instruction and are planned accordingly. In the area of technology, students use computers and software to aid learning and critical thinking.
