Changes for 2000/2001
Student Accountability
Parents and students need to be aware that changes were made in student accountability during the recent legislative session. Utah has now entered the era of what is referred to as "high stakes testing." Briefly stated, this means that students will be held accountable for their performance on the standardized testing required by the State. In Utah this system is referred to as U-PASS.
U-PASS provides that teachers shall use the results of standardized testing as one measure in determining a student's academic grade in a related subject. Student test performance shall also be considered in the decision of whether or not a student is promoted from one grade to another. A student's performance on tenth grade basic skills testing shall be recorded on a student's transcript. Students entering the tenth grade in 2002-2003 must pass the basic skills competency test in order to graduate from high school. Parents and teachers need to encourage their students to perform as well as they can on the State Core tests each May and on the SAT-9 tests each fall. How students perform will now have significant consequences for them.
Pledge of Allegiance
A new law passed in the last legislature requires that elementary schools teach proper respect for the flag and provide for the daily recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance. Parents who object to having their child participate in this activity, either on religious or other grounds, should contact the principal
Attendance Policy
Students need to attend school regularly. Most learning is sequential and regular attendance allows the child to be introduced to new material in the proper sequence and intervals. As each new concept is introduced, students are given time for guided practice. Regular attendance allows students enough controlled time for instruction and practice under the supervision of the classroom teacher.
1. Students who attend 75% or more of the school day will be counted present for that day.
2. When you know in advance that your child will be absent from school, please send a note to the teacher explaining the circumstances of the absence. With advanced notice, the teacher can assist your child with the work missed to minimize the effect of the absence.
3. When your child is absent and you have not had time to send prior notice, please call the school the day of the absence between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 9:00 A.M. The secretary will notify the teacher immediately.
4. Students are encouraged to quickly make up work missed when they are absent so that they do not fall behind.
5. In the event of a prolonged illness, arrangements can be made for your child to be taught at home or make up the missed work. If the absence is going to be longer than five days, please call the office so arrangements can be made for a homebound teacher.
6. Students who arrive late to school must check in at the office.
7. Students are not permitted to leave the school campus during the day unless they are accompanied by a parent or a responsible adult with written parent permission. The parent or responsible adult must come into the office and check out the child.
8. Occasionally students develop a habit of coming to school late. If your child is habitually late to school, you will be contacted for assistance in helping us resolve this problem.
9. Students who show continued patterns of poor attendance will be referred to the Department of Human Services and/or Juvenile Court.
Promotion and Retention
Students who attend school on a regular basis and complete their assigned work will be promoted to the next grade level. Students who miss more than 20 school days and/or do not complete assigned work will be considered for retention the following year.
Perfect Attendance Award
Students who have no recorded absences, as outlined in this policy, and have no more than five tardies or early dismissals will be recognized as having Perfect Attendance for the year.
Visitors
Students cannot bring friends or relatives to school without prior permission of the principal. Parents are welcome to visit the school, but need to stop at the office and let the principal know they are in the building. Adults other than parents cannot visit students during the school day. Exceptions to this involve official visits by law enforcement and other agencies. Other adults must have a note with a verified parent/guardian signature stating the emergency nature of the visit.
Food / School Lunch Program
Homemade Food Items
The State and District have regulations prohibiting home made food items being distributed to students as part of school functions. Please do not send any homemade food to school for classroom parties, etc.
Meal Prices
School lunch prices are $1.15 for elementary aged students. Reduced lunch prices are 40 cents. Breakfast will be 80 cents and reduced price breakfast will be 30 cents. Lunch and Breakfast money is collected on Monday mornings. Please have your child bring their money to the secretary in the office.
Adult Meals
Parents are welcome to come to school and have school lunch with their child at any time. Parents who want to eat with their child must notify the office no later than 9:00 AM of the day they are coming so that the kitchen can prepare enough food for the day. The cost of an adult meal is $2.50.
Lunch Money Accounts
School Board policy prohibits students from having more than two days credit on their lunch / breakfast accounts. If a child has not paid after two days credit have been used s/he will have to bring a lunch or call parents from the office to bring one. During August only, we will accept post dated checks.
Parents are responsible for keeping track and up-to-date with student lunch accounts. If you have questions regarding the status of your child's account, please call the school secretary. Children will not be allowed to eat school lunch until their account is within district policy guidelines.
Free / Reduced Price Meals
The federal government participates in the purchase of meals when the declared family income falls below a certain level. Included in the registration materials is a form indicating whether or not a student will qualify for a reduced rate of pay for a meal or for a free meal. If you feel that you may qualify, please complete the form and bring it into school to have it verified by one of the school secretaries. School lunch status is confidential and there is no indication on a student meal ticket of that status.
Sack Lunches
Children who wish to bring a sack lunch to school are welcome to do so. They may purchase milk separately to eat with their sack lunch without the purchase of a meal. Students with a sack lunch come to the lunch room and eat with their classmates.
School Breakfast
School breakfast is served every morning school is in session starting at 7:45 a.m. If your child qualifies for free or reduced lunch, s/he also qualifies for free or reduced breakfast. We encourage parents to visit with their children regarding the importance of eating a healthy breakfast and lunch.
Closed Campus
Blanding Elementary School is a "Closed Campus". Students must be accompanied by an adult when leaving the school for any reason.
Special Programs and Services
English as a Second Language Education
Every student in the school is screened with a Home Language Survey. Students who have a language other than English spoken in the home are given the IPT test to determine their language skill level. Based on the results of this test a child may receive ESL instruction to assist them with their English and/or native language skills.
Insurance
San Juan School District makes available to all students the opportunity to purchase a Student Accident Insurance Plan at the beginning of the school year. The plan is also available to any new student enrolled during the year. Students have the option of purchasing insurance coverage for the school day only or they may purchase coverage which covers them 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The cost and coverage descriptions are explained in the insurance company literature. It is available to parents during registration. The purchase of insurance is voluntary and the cost of the plan is paid by the student/parents.
Johnson O Malley / Indian Education Liaison
JOM funding is special money appropriated by the federal government for Indian student's needs. Parent input is required for the school to spend this money. The Indian Education Committee (IEC) approves school plans and funding requests.
Mrs. Betty Dandy serves as our liaison for native American parents. She is available to all parents to assist in the maintenance and encouragement of communication between Blanding Elementary School and parents.
Lost and Found
When students lose an items at school, they need to check in the office. Lost and found articles are kept in the office.
Preschool
We are fortunate to be able to provide some preschool services for young children who might be developmentally delayed or have special language challenges. This quality program runs throughout the regular school year. If you have a child enrolled in this program please stay in close contact with the preschool staff so you know of their daily plans. If you have a child who you think might qualify for this program please contact Mrs. Valerie Turk.
PTA / Parent Advisory Committee
Our local Parent Teachers Association and Parent Advisory Committee meet every month. The PTA/PAC works to provide funding for special programs at Blanding Elementary School. They also assist by volunteering time for other special events such as "Reflections", the bike rodeo, and field day. All parents are invited to attend these meetings.
SEP Conferences
Twice each year we invite parents and students to meet with the classroom teacher to develop the Student Education Plan. The student, parents, and teacher each set goals for student achievement. These goals are individualized. The SEP is required by Utah law and we encourage each parent to be actively involved in this process. SEP conference are scheduled this year for September 23 and April 13. Conferences are scheduled by appointment. One week prior to the conference sign up sheets will be placed in the foyer so parents can come in and schedule the SEP conference for their child. Parents should feel free to arrange for other conferences at any other time during the year when special needs arise, or would like to check on their child's progress.
Special Education
All students progress academically, socially, emotionally, and physically at different rates. Special Education is a federally funded program in our school that helps us meet the needs of qualified students who progress at slower rates than others within a framework that is least restrictive to these students. Mrs. LouNell Chamberlain is our lead teacher. She and the other Special Educators can answer questions you might have about these services.
Title 1
Blanding Elementary School is designated as a Title I Schoolwide project. This federal program provides funds to assist all students in our school in math and reading. Title I funds are used to buy computers, textbooks, classroom library books, inservice training, and other items, as needed, to meet the academic needs of the students.
School Discipline Policy
Discipline and good manners are essential in maintaining a safe, secure environment which is conducive to learning. It is important that each student behave properly as part of the learning process. Learning proper behavior is part of the maturation process enabling young people to become productive citizens and make our communities a better place in which to live.
Least Restrictive Intervention
The philosophy of the school is to use the least restrictive intervention when disciplining a child. Simply put, this means that mild conseuences are used when first trying to manage a child's misbehavior. If these measures work, no further action is necessary. However, more severe consequences may be used if milder ones do not result in the desired change in behavior from the child.
Consequences For Misbehavior
Consequences for misbehavior are enforced with the following considerations:
1. Seriousness of the offense
2. Age of the student
3. Frequency of the misconduct
4. Student attitude
5. Special consideration such as, but not limited to,
a. special classification of the student
b. an individual educational plan or other special plan Most discipline problems are handled by the classroom teacher.
Classroom teachers have a system of consequences that provide for at least three levels of discipline intervention, one of which is a parent conference. Under normal circumstances a student is referred to the principal for discipline only after all intervention options available to the teacher are exhausted.
Parents, it is in your child's best interest that we all work together to ensure an excellent learning environment at Blanding Elementary School. We will involve you in the discipline process, when necessary, to assure that the learning environment is maintained.
District Rules
The San Juan School District has adopted a discipline policy for serious incidences of misbehavior by students. Blanding Elementary School adheres to and uses this policy in handling discipline problems of a serious nature. Copies of this policy are available in the office at Blanding Elementary School or from the district office.
School Rules
Copies of the school rules are posted in each classroom along with the consequences for misbehavior. School rules and consequences arealso posted in the office and other strategic locations around the building. A copy of these rules may be obtained at the school office. These rules are explained to all students on the first day of school. Violations of school rules are managed by the staff member who observes the misbehavior. Severe cases are referred to the principal.
Classroom Rules
Each classroom has its own set of rules. These rules are posted in the classroom along with the consequences for misbehavior. A copy of these rules is sent home with each student the first day they are in attendance. Additional copies are available from the classroom teacher upon request. These rules are explained to each student on the first day of school.
Lunchroom Rules
All students eating lunch in the lunchroom are expected to observe lunchroom rules. These rules are posted in the Lunchroom and a copy is available in the office. Students who are unable to observe lunchroom rules will not be permitted to eat in the lunchroom until proper behavior can be demonstrated.
School Bus Rules
Students who ride the bus must abide by the specific rules of the transportation carrier. These rules are distributed to students during the first week of school.
Serious Offenses
Serious offenses will result in immediate action by the principal.
Serious offenses include, but are not limited to, the following:
1. Fighting / Assault
2. Drug / Alcohol possession
3. Possession of weapons
4. Vandalism
5. Racial Slurs / Degrading others
6. Stealing
7. Exhibiting disrespect or directing profanity, vulgar language or obscene gestures towards teachers, employees, or other students.
8. Conduct that disrupts the school environment or educational process.
9. Any behavior that may result in a student harming himself or others.
Safe Schools
On October 14, 1996 the San Juan School District Board of Education adopted a policy (FHA) that provides for a safe school environment. It is the intent of the Board to provide every student in the district with the opportunity to learn in an environment which is safe, conducive to the learning process, and free from unnecessary disruption. This policy outlines prohibited activities by students as they relate to disruptive behavior, vandalism, assault, and the use of drugs, alcohol, tobacco, and/or weapons. It outlines due process procedures for students accused of these behaviors and provides for consequences to be imposed (usually suspension or expulsion) for those who violate the policy. It also makes special provisions for students identified as disabled under the Individuals With Disabilities and Education Act. In addition, the policy describes the alternative and continuing educational services that may be available to students who violate the policy. A process to appeal administrative decisions to the School Board is outlined. The policy also requires that a record be kept of students who are suspended or expelled under the terms of this policy and places a notation of such action on the student's transcript. A copy of the complete policy is available for inspection at the school. Copies of policy FHA may be obtained from the school or from district office or by calling 678-1200.
Dress Code
1. Students may wear mid-thigh length shorts, walking shorts, or "Jams" to school.
2. No sweat suit shorts, cut-offs, biking shorts or tank tops are permitted.
3. Student dress should be appropriate for school and not detract from the educational climate and learning environment of the school.
4. Wearing hats at Blanding Elementary School is prohibited.
5. Clothing advertising alcoholic beverages, tobacco, or having reference to illicit drugs, sex, satanic symbols, or obscene language is not permitted.
6. It is prohibited to wear or display gang or gang-related hand signals, insignia, clothing, uniforms, colors, paraphernalia, or other items identifying or representing gang association while on or around school property or at school activities or functions.
Emphasis on Reading
Reading is the most important skill a child can learn in school. It is the key to success in all other subject areas. Several programs in the school focus specifically on reading.
The Waterford Early Reading Program is used in Kindergarten to help provide children with the pre-reading skillsthat are necessary to success in future grades. All Kindergarten children will receive a special set of video tapes to be used at home. We encourage parents of Kindergarten children to allow them as much time viewing these tapes as possible.
In addition, children in this program bring home books that focus on the letters and sounds they are learning in school. Parents are encouraged to listen to their child read these stories or to read them to their child if the child is having difficulty. At this early age it is vital that the child learns from his/ her parents the importance of reading in the home.
CLIP tutoring is available to First Grade Children who are classified as emergent readers. You will be contacted by the school if your child is to receive this service. Certified CLIP teachers also use their skills in assisting children in their own classrooms.
The Accelerated Reading Program (AR) is used throughout the year in grades 2 through 5, and part of the year in 1st grade. The aim of this program is to help children read independently. When a child has read a book from the AR list s/he takes a short quiz on a computer to show they read and understand the book. Points are awarded for scores of 60% or better. These points may then be spent in our AR store. This program motivates children to spend more time reading.
Certification Levels are used to encourage students to read more challenging material. Like points, certification will recognize certain achievement milestones and provide students with ready made goals to focus on. However, rather than linking the milestones solely to point level, reader certification highlights significant stages in the student's development as a reader. Students who attain various levels of certification will be given special awards and recognitions during the year. The Scholastic Reading Series was adopted by the San Juan School District in 1997 for use in all elementary schools throughout the district. This program assures that children receive a balanced language arts program including phonics, spelling, guided reading, self-selected reading, and writing. Students will spend a minimum of 3 hours each day developing their literacy skills.
San Juan School District
Parent and Student Notification of Rights under FERPA
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords parents and students under 18 years of age ("eligible students") certain rights with respect to the student's education records.
1. The right to inspect and review the student's education records within 45 days of the day the District or school receives a request for access. Parents or eligible students should submit to the school principal, a written request that identifies the record(s) they wish to inspect. The principal will make arrangements for access and notify the parent or eligible student of the time and place where the records may be inspected.
2. The right to request the amendment of the student's education records that the parent or eligible student believe is inaccurate or misleading. Parents or eligible students may ask the San Juan School District or school to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate or misleading. They should write the school principal, clearly identify the part of the record they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the district or school decides not to amend the record as requested by the parent or eligible student, the District or school will notify the parent or eligible student of the decision and advise them of their right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the parent or eligible student when notified of the right to a hearing.
3. The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the student's educational records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. One exception which permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to school officials withlegitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by the District as an administrator, supervisor, instructor, or support staff member; a person serving on the School Board; a person with whom the District has contracted to perform a special task (such as a health nurse, therapist, auditor, or attorney); or a parent or student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility. Upon request, the District or school discloses education records without consent to officials of another school district in which the student seeks or intends to enroll.
4. The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the District or school to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the Office that administers FERPA are:
Family Policy Compliance Office
US Department of Education
600 Independence Avenue, SW
Washington DC 20202-4605
Directory Information Notice
The District or school will release personally identifiable information which is defined as "directory information" to any individual or organization that files a written request with the Superintendent, school principal, or designee. "Directory information" shall include a student's name, address, telephone number, date and place of birth, participation in officially recognized activities and sports, weight and height of members of athletic teams, dates of attendance, awards received, and the most recent previous school attended by a student. This information will be released to anyone who follows the procedure for requesting it, unless the parent or eligible student objects to the release of any or all of this information. This objection must be made in writing to the Principal within ten (10) school days after the issuance of this notice.
SCHOOL FEES NOTICE
FOR FAMILIES OF CHILDREN IN KINDERGARTEN THROUGH SIXTH GRADES
(IF YOU NEED HELP IN UNDERSTANDING THIS SECTION CALL 678-1200)
The Utah Constitution prohibits the charging of fees in elementary schools. That means that if your child is in kindergarten throughgrade six (even though the grade may be part of a middle school), you cannot be charged for textbooks, classroom equipment or supplies, musical instruments, field trips, assemblies, snacks other than food provided through the School Lunch Program), or for anything else that takes place or is used during the regular school day.
If you wish to purchase school pictures, yearbooks, or similar items through the school, those costs are not fees and will not be waived. Also, if your students loses or damages school property, the costs of replacement or repair are not fees and need not be waived.
Federal law permits schools to charge for food or milk provided as part of the School Lunch Program. If you cannot afford to pay, you may be eligible for free or reduced prince meals or milk. Your school will give you information about applying for free or reduced price meals or milk. All information which you provide in your application will be kept confidential.
State law and State Board of Education rules do not permit schools to charge fees for anything that takes place during the regular school day! Fees may only be charged for programs offered before or after school, or during school vacations. If your family's assets do not exceed the statewide fee waiver asset limit and your child is eligible forfree school lunch or receives SSI payments, or if you are receiving AFDC or if the child was placed in your home by the government as a foster child, the school must waive the fees. A school administrator may require your family to complete a Statewide Fee Waiver Assets Questionnaire even if you satisfy the income eligibility guidelines for fee waivers. The conclusion of this asset test may determine your student's eligibility for fee waivers. If you are having a financial emergency caused by job loss, major illness, or other substantial loss of income beyond your control, you might be eligible for a waiver even if other eligibility criteria are not met.
If your local school board allows your school to charge fees, a Fee Waiver Application (Grades K-6) and, if required by your district, a statewide fee waiver assets questionnaire, are enclosed. Your school will give you additional information about fee waivers if you ask. School funds are limited, and your school may need help. As a result, the school may ask you for tax-deductible donations of school supplies, equipment, or money, but the school cannot require donations or tell anyone else the names of those who have or have not made donations (except that the school may honor those who make major donations). No child may be penalized for not making a donation. For example, if donations are used to pay for a field trip, every child ,must be allowed to go on the trip even though some may not have made a donation. If you have questions, first talk to your school or school district representative listed below. If you still need help, contact one of the other agencies listed:

Advertising Non-school Events
In an effort to cooperate with local non-profit groups (County Recreation, Boy Scouts, etc.) Blanding Elementary School will assist with advertising events of these groups in the following manner:
1. Announcements will be made by school personnel at 2:55 PM (12:55 PM on Fridays) alerting children that an event is taking place. Announcements may include who to contact or how to obtain further information. Those wishing to have an announcement made should contact one of the school secretaries.
2. The school will set aside a location where handbills, flyers, posters, etc. may be placed to advertise such events. Children can be directed to check this area for information during the announcement over the intercom system. Distributing advertisement material from class to class is not allowed.
3. Advertisements for private or commercial businesses cannot be made through the school. Exceptions are made for businesses who enter into a formal educational partnership with the school.
Classroom Assignments
Every effort is made by the school to provide an equal and appropriate education for all students. Classrooms are carefully organized at each grade level to provide classroom teachers with balanced student loads. For this reason requests for a specific teacher will not be honored. If your child has a disability or other educational problem that requires consideration in making a classroom assignment you are encouraged to visit with the principal and discuss the specifics of the problem. Your concerns will be factored in along with previous classroom performance data when making the assignment.
Communication Between School and Home
The most effective means for the school to communicate information to parents is through the monthly newsletter. These newsletters contain a monthly calendar of events along with items of information that affect your child at school.
The monthly newsletter is usually sent home at the first of each month along with the lunch room menus. Please check with your child at the beginning of each month to make sure you get your newsletter. If for any reason you do not get one please contact the school for a copy.
