LUNCH ROOM
PRIVILEGES
It is the expectation that
students who stay at school for lunch demonstrate appropriate behaviour, display proper eating habits and obey requests
made by the staff. Students who stay for lunch must remain on
school property throughout the noon hour. A written note must be sent to the
school if there is a change in our child’s lunch arrangements
Parents are asked to review these
expectations with their children.
Parents of children who do not abide by these lunch rules will be
contacted by the school. If a child is
not able to follow the lunch rules, he/she will be refused lunch room
privileges. Parents would have to make
alternate lunch arrangements. Your cooperation and support in these matters is
appreciated.

BURNT ELM PUBLIC SCHOOL
is included in "Peel District Public School Board" system. Unless schools are specifically "CLOSED", they will
open to receive students although regular programs may not always be possible.
If the “BUSES ARE CANCELLED BUT THE
SCHOOL IS OPEN”, children may come to school but parents are
responsible for the safe transportation to and from school.
Some staff may be delayed; others may be
prevented from arriving. No child will
be sent home at other than normal dismissal times without the parent, guardian
or a responsible adult having been notified in advance. Although Board officials will endeavour to keep schools open whenever possible, the final
decision about sending children to school in poor weather rests with the
parents.
