We try to go outside for recess on a daily basis. On cold weather days, please make
sure your child has a hat, gloves, and coat. When it snows, boots and snow pants
are important. Please plan on your child going outside every day.

Emergency School Closing Information

If conditions occur that force the closing of school, an announcement will first be
posted on www.hudson.k12.oh.us. You will then receive a phone call notifying your
family of the closing. Most local radio and T.V. stations also announce school
closings. Please do not call the school. In lieu of closing for the day, the HCSD may
participate in a 2 hour delayed start (please see more information under Delayed
Start).

Extended Care Program

Hudson Community Education and Recreation (HCER) Program offers a before and
after care program: Explorer Zone. The hours of operation are from 6:45 A.M. to
8:55 A.M. for the before school day session and 3:45 P.M. until 6:00 P.M. for the
after school session. Breakfast is available through Food Service in the morning
and transportation to and from all elementary buildings is provided. Registration
materials are available at the HCER office located on Hudson-Aurora Road or the
website www.hudson.k12.oh.us.

Family Vacations

We discourage school absences for the purpose of family vacations. Our curriculum
involves a great deal of collaborative work, hands-on experiments, and the use of
manipulative materials. In addition, much discussion occurs in the classroom
regarding the thinking process. It is very difficult to duplicate these experiences
at home or on vacation. However, if a family chooses to take a vacation during the
school year, please contact your child’s teacher. A written note explaining the
absence will be required. Depending on what is occurring in the classroom during
the absence, we cannot guarantee that homework will be provided.

Field Trips

Field trips are used to supplement classroom experiences. Before each trip,
activities are planned to help prepare the students for the trip. After each trip,
there are follow-up activities and discussions. Students and parents are notified
