Students will not be called to the office for personal phone calls; in case of emergencies, the message will be relayed to the student. Student use of the school telephone will be permissible for educational or health related reasons only.
TEXTBOOKS/INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS
Students are responsible for the texts that are assigned to them at the beginning of the year. These books will be collected at the end of the year and should reflect normal usage. If the books are in any other condition, the student will be assessed a fee accordingly.
TITLE I LIKE PROGRAM
Title I is a federally funded supplemental reading program for students showing a need for reading intervention. Pivik Elementary runs a “Title I Like” program which provides reading support through the use of Reading Specialists. Reading support is part of the building’s Response to Instruction and Intervention Model. Support Instruction is part of the regular education program schedule and may take place in the regular classroom or in the reading specialists’s classroom. Title I Like instruction may be with the reading specialist individually or in partnership with the classroom teacher.
The purpose of these programs is to provide additional instruction and practice in all facets of the reading process. Students in grades K – 4 are taught in educational environments that best meet their needs. Supplementary instruction may occur in small flexible groups that meet three to five times per week, one-on-one sessions, or in the whole class setting. Parents are kept informed of their children’s progress through progress reports, assessment reports, and parent conferences. Parents are also informed of their children’s progress through the electronic parent portal which allows monitoring of their children’s grades in real time. Those who do not have internet access can request hard copies of the information on a regular basis.

You may only enter through the main school entrance by being buzzed in and proceeding into the office. If you will be entering the school, please bring a valid state-issued driver's license with you. Your license will be scanned before you are issued a visitor's badge. All visitors with a purse/bag/backpack or any similar device commonly used to carry items will be asked to consent to a search of that item. If consent is not given, the visitor will be denied entry into the building. The visitor will reserve the option to return the item to their vehicle and re-enter the building without the item. For student pick-ups and drop-offs, a staff member will meet you at the front entrance door and escort your child.
*K-8 Parents sign in/out in vestibules: When dropping off or picking up students, they will not be let in or out of the main office if the parent/adult is still in the vestibule. Parents/adults must wait outside of the exterior door after signing students in/out.
