SUPPLEMENTARY BOOKS: When books are handed out to the children for use during a specific period within the classroom, they will be immediately collected after they have been read. If the book is to remain with the child for any length of time, his/her name must appear in the book and the teacher should have a record of this. 3. LIBRARY BOOKS: Books may be borrowed for two weeks. Books are charged to the child so that he/she will have the experience of signing out a library book and abiding by due dates. If books are returned late, there will be a five cent per day fine per book, payable by the child. All lost library books must be paid for so that the school can purchase a replacement copy. If the book is located after a new order is placed, the child will be allowed to keep the old book since he/she has paid for it. Buses Busing is provided within a 15-mile limit to students from their residence. The public school district where the student resides provides and manages this service. If a student is to take a different bus from school, a note must be submitted to the principal at the beginning of the school day. To obtain student transportation in school districts outside of New York City, parents must file requests with the district in which they live by April 1 of the preceding school year or within 30 days of moving to the district. Parents must contact their local public school district to determine their eligibility. Students and parents should consider riding on the school bus as a privilege and an extension of the school. Thus, students are to demonstrate a respectful, Christian, and safety-conscious attitude at all times on the bus. Students should obey the driver and monitors at all times. Students should do nothing to cause annoyances or distraction to the driver, as this places the safety of all in danger. In cases of extreme or persistent misbehavior, the school will work in consultation with the public school district about possible consequences. Change of Address, E-mail, Phone (G.1) The office must be informed immediately if there is a change of home address, email address, cell phone number, or home telephone number for purposes of mailing and/or emergency notification.
