I know that everyone has had a fantastic summer, and now it is time to begin thinking about the upcoming school year. Please read below for the answers to several questions that the WOES office is asked frequently during the summer:o)
Q: Where can I find copies of my child’s classroom supply list?
A: Suggested supply lists are linked to the home page of our school website, and copies are also available at Wal Mart and in the White Oak Elementary School office.
Q: When can I learn the name of my child’s teacher?
A: We have Meet the Teacher night on August 23, 4:00 – 6:00 p.m. You can learn the name of your child’s teacher and visit the classroom at that time.
Q: How can I find out the bus my child will ride, as well as the pick-up and drop-off times?
A: If your child rode the bus last year, the bus number, pick-up, and drop-off times should be the same at the beginning of this year. If you have a student new to WOES or a student who is riding the bus for the first time, you can find out bus information at Meet the Teacher night on August 23, 4:00 – 6:00 p.m.
Q: What time does school start and end each day?
A: The first bell rings at 7:55 a.m., and the tardy bell rings at 8:00 a.m. In the afternoons, K-2 students are dismissed at 2:50, and 3-5 students are dismissed at 2:55. The buses leave the lot at 3:00 p.m.
Q: I recently moved to the White Oak Elementary School district, and I need to register my children. What do I need?
A: You can stop by WOES during the summer Monday – Thursday, 8:00 – 4:00 to get a registration packet to fill out and return. You need a certified birth certificate for us to copy, your child’s immunization record, and a copy of a utility bill for proof of residence.
If you have other questions, please visit the White Oak Elementary School website or call us anytime.
We look forward to seeing you on August 23 for Meet the Teacher night and August 25 for the first day of school.
