Douglas Primary School
Mrs. Jane's Kindergarten class had a “Thankful Are We” feast as part of their
Social
Studies unit on The Pilgrims/Thanksgiving.
Here
are a few facts they learned about the Pilgrims:
·
Their
journey to North America on the Mayflower.
·
The
building of Plymouth Colony and their struggle through the first winter.
·
The
meeting of a Native American named Squanto who became a helpful friend.
·
The
celebration of a bountiful harvest that the Pilgrims were very thankful to
share with their Native American friends (which we now call Thanksgiving).

First Trimester Report Cards will be made accessible to parents
on-line via iPass on December 1, 2015. If for any reason you are unable to view your child's report card, please let us know. Your
child's report card shows the total number of absences and tardies, whether
excused or unexcused. Even if an absence or tardy is excused, it
still shows up on the report card. If you have any questions or concerns,
please let us know. Directions on how to access your child's report card
are posted on our website. Parents who have access to iPass already were
sent an e-mail, notifying them that their child's report card was available for
viewing. Go to "Competency Reports" to view the report
card. Go to "Documents" to view and print a PDF hard copy of
your child's report card.
If you have difficulties
logging in or need your password reset, please send an email to iparent@douglasps.net.
We are pleased to be able to
offer this online option that promotes strong communication between school and
home. If at any time, you need to
request paper copies of your child’s report cards, please feel free to let us
know. We welcome your feedback at any
time! Thank you.

Drop-Off Reminders:
For
the safety of everyone involved and to ensure the smooth, efficient flow of
vehicular traffic during student arrivals in the morning, we are asking that
parents make every effort to observe and adhere to the following guidelines:
- School staff members will
appear outside the building to greet students at 8:15 a.m.;
- Please use the parking
lots/spaces in the rear (east) and on the left (north) sides of the
building (beyond the curbside), and walk your son/daughter to the sidewalk
where staff members will meet you;
- Please avoid dropping your
son/daughter off at the curbside along the left (north) side of the
building. With winter approaching,
the roadway becomes more restricted with the accumulation of snow, making
it difficult for vehicles to pass safely.
Snow embankments will also be difficult or impossible for children to
navigate around;
- Please avoid unloading your
child from the left (roadside) of your vehicle to prevent injury and to
allow passing vehicles to do so safely;
- Do
not park
your vehicle at the front corner of the building. This makes it extremely difficult for
the school buses to make a right turn and continue toward the Elementary
School from the main parking lot after they drop off students;
- Do
not park
on or obstruct the crosswalk with your vehicle;
- Please drive with extreme
caution when passing through the area in the morning and during the
afternoon;
We
appreciate your attention to this matter.
Your cooperation will help to improve the efficiency with which traffic
moves through the area and will increase the safety of everyone involved, most
notably, the Primary School students and their parents. Thank you.
