Picture Day is tomorrow at Trimble High School, Tuesday, August 23rd. Picture forms were sent home with students on the first day of school. You may place an order online as well. Please call the high school office at 740-767-3434 for the school code or extra forms if you need one.
Thank you to ALL families for your patience as we work through our new procedures for the DROP-OFF/PICK-UP line. Tomorrow is the first day for ALL Kindergarten and some preschool students. We ask ALL families to be especially patient and careful during arrival and drop-off times this week. Also, expect delays as it will take longer this week to get these students into and out of the building safely.
Pick-Up and Drop-Off Reminders:
1. Adults are asked to stay in the vehicle at all times. School staff will help your child in and out of the vehicle.
2. As you enter the parking lot, prompt your child gather his/her backpack, lunch box, coats/jackets, etc. and say good-bye BEFORE you get to the drop off at the TOMCAT awning.
3. If your child is unable to buckle himself/herself into the seat, please pull into a parking space or designated spot to help your child. This allows the line to continue moving.
4. Please drop your child off on the sidewalk/curb side of the car.
5. GO SLOW and be aware of students and staff entering/exiting the building.
6. Be careful to not block buses entering or exiting the parking lot.
7. DO NOT drop-off your child until school staff are outside to supervise.
8. For elementary students, any child arriving to school after 9:00am, must come to the front entrance of the building and sign in at the office before going to class.
This is a reminder that tomorrow Monday, August 22nd, is the FIRST day of school for ALL KINDERGARTEN students. It is also the first day for "GROUP A" preschool students as well. The school doors open at 8:35am for student arrival; however, the school day begins at 8:45am. Finally, ALL students are eligible to receive FREE breakfast AND lunch again this year. We are excited to welcome our NEWEST TOMCATS to our school!
This is a reminder to families who PICK UP their child(ren) at the end of the school day: Middle school student pick-up will not begin until approximately 2:30pm after the buses leave the parking lot. Elementary student pick-up will not begin until approximately 3:30pm after the buses leave the parking lot. Pick-up will be in the FRONT of the school building for BOTH middle school and elementary school students. Follow the normal drop-off line in the parking lot to the right of the school building to the back of the parking lot by the gymnasium, go past the Tomcat awning and follow the sidewalk to the corner of where the bus parking begins. Once buses have departed, you will stay to the right hand side by the sidewalk to the front of the building where school staff with call for your student to be dismissed. We ask that you please be patient with us as we try this new procedure. The following announcement is for families who attended Open House last night: We sent home two INCORRECT forms with families last night. Your student will be bringing NEW CORRECT forms home this afternoon. Please replace the bright green "Emergency Medical" form with the lavender "Personal" form. Also, replace the bright pink "Field Trip form with the green "Field Trip" form. We ask all families to fill out all forms as soon as possible and return them to school with your child. Thank you!
