One change is an earlier start to the school year. The first student day is scheduled for August 21, With the earlier start comes an earlier end. The last scheduled student day will be May 31, This is a tentative date and may be adjusted due to weather cancellations. A challenge for the school year will be to live within a very tight budget. Due to inequitable state funding and unfunded mandates, there will be very few new teachers on staff. In order to balance the budget, the district left 12 ½ positions unfilled. While there may be a few less extra activities, all academic programs have remained intact and we are committed to offering a quality experience to all of our students in the coming year. We look forward to a successful year and appreciate your support and assistance. In addition to the scheduled holidays and in-services, the calendar contains the schedule for many of our athletic, musical, and other extracurricular events. Such events are what makes school special for all of our students and are the things that are remembered for years to come. Please note those activities of interest and plan to attend. Our students will appreciate your presence and support. It is impossible to predict what other unforeseen challenges will arise during 2013/2014 school year. However, one thing is certain, with the continued support of the community, the guidance of the Board of Directors, the dedication of our staff, and the efforts of our student body; we can and will have a successful year regardless of the circumstances. We have a responsibility to accept nothing less. Thank you for your continued support and involvement for the mission of Conewago Valley School District. We look forward to a great year.

23 23 PARENT NOTIFICATION SYSTEM The Conewago Valley School District is using the Global Connect parent notification system. The system is a computer based program that is able to deliver an automated message or to every family and staff person in the District within a matter of minutes. The primary use of the system is to make announcements regarding: weather delays, closings, and early dismissals a child s absence any emergency situations that may occur at one of our schools and /or important events scheduled for our schools. important information relative to our schools. The system is only as good as the information in our computer data base. It is very important that you update your child s contact information with current phone numbers and address. This can be easily accomplished with the registration materials you receive during the first few days of school or by contacting the school office when a change occurs. The system is programmed to call up to three numbers. That means if you have three numbers on file, you will receive three calls, one on each phone. However, if you do not want to have more than one number listed, or if you do not wish to be included in the system at all, please contact your child s school office. Global Connect also has the capability to send messages with attachments to the District s staff and families. Emergency announcements will continue to be made on local radio and TV stations and on the District website. BICYCLES Students may ride bicycles to school at their own risk. Bicycles are to be parked in designated areas and left there during school hours. The school assumes no CONEWAGO VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT CALENDAR responsibility for damage or theft of bicycles. Bicycle locks are recommended as a precaution against theft. CHANGES IN ATHLETIC SCHEDULES Athletic times and schedules may change for various reasons. If there are any questions please contact Mr. Ken Shafer in the High School office at X To view athletic schedules go to: HIGH SCHOOL LIBRARY SCHEDULE Mon. - Fri. 7:00 am - 3:30 pm Days before vacations 7:00 am - 2:30 pm SCHOOL CROSSING GUARDS Because of the importance of the safety of children within our area, crossing guards are provided at several places along the route which children take to walk to and from school. The following intersections have been designated as locations for crossing guards: New Oxford Elem/Middle School/High School/Conewago Valley Intermediate: Intersection of Lincoln Way East and Peters Street 7:00 to 9:15am and 2:30 to 4:15pm Intersection of Hanover Street and the New Oxford square 7:00 to 9:15am and 2:30 to 4:15pm Intersection of Berlin Rd and Berlin Ave 7:00 to 9:15am and 2:30 to 4:15pm Conewago Township Elem.: Elm Avenue and Oxford Avenue at the signal light 8:30 to 9:15am and 2:55 to 3:40pm Linden Avenue and Elm Avenue 8:30 to 9:15am. and 2:55 to 3:40pm TRANSPORTATION The Board of School Directors provides free transportation for pupils attending the public schools of the Conewago Valley School District. Transportation is provided to those who, in the judgment of the Board, have unreasonable distances to walk to and from school. Each student who is transported to school by a District-owned or contracted bus service shall have a single, consistent pick-up and a single, consistent drop-off location. Variations from these single, consistent pick-up and drop-off locations may be made on a given day if the parent or legal guardian notifies the school, preferably in writing, on an occurrence-by-occurrence basis. Pupils must be at the bus stop five minutes before the scheduled pick-up time. The responsibility of the Board of School Directors begins when the child enters the school bus. This responsibility ceases at the end of the school day when the student steps off the school bus. Parents have legal responsibility for their children as they travel to and from school as pedestrians or as they travel to and from or wait at school bus stops. Conduct of students at the bus stop is the responsibility of parents/guardians and is subject to school disciplinary action. Any questions about our transportation system should be addressed to the District Transportation Office at BUS PASS PROCEDURE If a student is going home with another student 1. Both students must have a note signed from their parents. 2. The bus pass will be issued from the office. If a student is going home to a different location 1. The student must have a note signed from their parent. 2. The bus pass will be issued from the office. Students are required to give the pass to the bus driver when boarding the bus in the afternoon. No student will be allowed to board the bus without the pass. Our goal is to keep the students safe. Building offices should keep the notes for reference if needed. VISITORS AND SECURITY We are all interested in creating an atmosphere where our children can feel safe. One aspect of this feeling of security for both children and parents is the limiting of unhindered access to our school buildings. After students have entered school buildings and sessions begin, all doors except for the main lobby door will be locked. All visitors must enter through the main doors and must report to the office immediately to secure a visitor s badge. Even if you are only visiting for a few minutes to pick up a child or to drop something off, you need to go to the office first. We appreciate your cooperation in this matter. SMOKING Students are prohibited from smoking or possessing tobacco, in any form, on school property including sidewalks and parking areas. The possession and use of snuff and "look-alike snuff" is also prohibited on school property. ADULT SMOKING POLICY Tobacco use is prohibited in school buildings, on school buses, vans and other vehicles owned by, leased by, or under the control of the Conewago Valley School District; and on property owned by, leased by, or under the control of the Conewago Valley School District. Persons violating this policy will subject themselves to possible penalty as prescribed by appropriate law and school code. (Board Policy No in compliance with the Pennsylvania Statute 35 PS, ) ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES The Board of School Directors requires that school-aged pupils enrolled in the schools of the District attend school regularly in accordance with the laws of the State. The educational program offered by this District is predicated upon the presence of the pupil and requires continuity of instruction and classroom participation. The regular contact of pupils with one another in the classroom and participation

24 24 CONEWAGO VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT CALENDAR in a well-planned instructional activity under the tutelage of a competent teacher are vital to this purpose. Attendance shall be required of all students of compulsory school age enrolled in the schools except that a principal or teacher may excuse a student for temporary absences when satisfactory evidence of such mental, physical, or other urgent conditions which may reasonably cause the student's absence. EXCUSES FOR ABSENCE: Any pupil who is absent for any cause, upon returning to school shall bring a written explanation from his/her parent or guardian giving the reason for such absence. The fact that a parent or guardian has sent a written explanation of absence does not necessarily mean that the absence shall be considered lawful. Continued, repeated, or questionable absence may justify the administration requesting an investigation. In cases of pupils whose absences are so frequent as to require investigation, the parent or guardian may be required to submit proof of illness as indicated by the family doctor. Excuses shall be coded as excused, unexcused, and unlawful. Absences resulting from illness, death in the immediate family, major religious holidays (as listed by the Pennsylvania Department of Education), serious emergencies at home, or absence when previous permission is granted may be excused. Unexcused absence shall be considered an unlawful absence for all pupils under the age of seventeen (17). When a pupil is charged with three days of unlawful absence, the parents may be liable to legal action under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. No pupil can expect to progress normally in school when he/she is absent or tardy a great number of times. It is the parents' responsibility to see that their children attend school regularly. WITHDRAWAL FROM SCHOOL When a student is withdrawn from school for reasons of moving or is transferring to another school, the school should be notified at least two (2) days prior to the change. The student must secure a withdrawal form from the school building office and on the last day of attendance have each teacher initial the form to show that all obligations with each teacher is cleared. All textbooks, locks, laboratory fees, etc. must be returned or paid for. Information as to where the student is moving and the name of the new school district, if possible, must be furnished. APPOINTMENTS Appointments with doctors, dentists, etc., should be made for Saturday or sometime other than a school day. When parents request that these appointments not be made during school hours, arrangements can usually be made. The school will excuse absence for medical appointments. FAMILY TRAVEL Parents who plan travel which will require a child's absence from school should make arrangements with the building principal. There is a definite school procedure concerning pupil absence for family travel, which includes the completion of a Pre- Arranged Absence form. Arrangements with the school should be made a minimum of five school days before the beginning date of the trip. CHILD ABUSE Any employee of the Conewago Valley School District who suspects that a child may have been physically injured or abused by his parent or guardian is required by law to report the incident to the school principal. The school principal or his/her designee is required to contact the proper state and county authorities. DRUGS AND ALCOHOL The educational environment is disrupted by a student who, while in school or while engaged in or attending a school activity, possesses, uses, attempts to sell, distributes, or is under the influence of drugs and alcohol. All students shall be encouraged, and staff members shall report to the principal any person suspected of soliciting, giving, or using any narcotics, alcohol or other health endangering compounds while on property under school s jurisdiction or while attending school-related functions. Students who, while under the school s jurisdiction, are found to possess or use a controlled substance, alcoholic beverage, or any controlled drug, shall be suspended from school related activities for a period conforming with current school code and Board policy. Expulsion can be the result of drug and/or alcohol abuse in connection with school. If your child or another child you know is experiencing a problem with drugs or alcohol abuse, please contact a school official. A student assistance program is available to help children deal with chemical abuse problems. STUDENT ASSISTANCE The Student Assistance Teams at New Oxford High School and Middle School are designed to intervene and offer help to students who are at risk because of drugs or alcohol abuse or mental health concerns. The teams are made up of teachers, counselors, the school nurse, building administrators, and local agency counselors. Students are referred to the teams by teachers, family members, or in some cases themselves. The team collects information and makes recommendations for the best way of dealing with the problems. Individual counseling, groups, peer helpers, or in-patient treatment are some of the many possible recommendations. If you are concerned about a student you know, please call and ask for Mr. Kevin Thomas or Dr. Lorraine Eck in the High School, Dr. Gretchen Gates in the Middle School, or Dr. Ken Armacost in the Intermediate School. All referrals will be kept strictly confidential. SPECIAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS The Conewago Valley School District provides a free and appropriate public education to all students determined to be exceptional and in need of "specially designed instruction." These services may be provided solely by the District or in conjunction with the Lincoln Intermediate Unit #12. A range of educational placements is available to meet the individual needs of each student including: gifted education, learning support, and various itinerant, supplemental, or full-time special education classes. Many low-incidence disability classes are located in neighboring school districts. For answers to specific questions regarding these special education programs, please contact your child's building principal or Dr. Janet Trimmer, Director of Special Education, at X Screening activities are conducted if a student is experiencing difficulties which may interfere with learning or for a student who may need enrichment beyond the regular curriculum. A building level team reviews records and diagnostic data and, if necessary, collects additional information to assist in the identification of the problem. Adaptations will be made in the student's educational program and monitored over a period of time. If the student's Academic or behavioral concerns cannot be resolved through implementation of evidence-based interventions, a referral for a multidisciplinary evaluation may be made.

25 25 CONEWAGO VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT CALENDAR KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION Children must be at least five years old by September 1 to register for fall kindergarten. Students registering for first grade must be six years old by September 1. Children currently enrolled in a Conewago Valley School District kindergarten class need not register for first grade in the District. Parents should bring the child to registration. You should also bring the child's birth certificate and health information. Registration packets are available at either elementary school. Registration forms may be completed prior to registration; however, parents must bring the child's birth certificate and health/ immunization history when registering. Watch the District website (www. conewago.k12.pa.us) for Kindergarten registration dates for the 2014/2015 school year. PRIVACY OF RECORDS Records are maintained for each student from his/her entrance into school through the twelfth grade or withdrawal. Since school records are public records, some measure it was felt, needed to be taken to insure a family's "Right to Privacy" in regard to the information collected and stored in the school files. Examples of information that may be contained in a student's file are: 1. Personal and family data including certification of name and date of birth 2. Test data, achievement records and other evaluative information 3. Medical reports 4. Anecdotal reports 5. Psychological reports 6. Records of conferences 7. Copies of correspondence with parents and others concerning the student. 8. Other records which may contribute to understanding the educational progress of the student 9. For eligible Special Education students; appropriate State mandated forms/ information EMERGENCY CLOSING OF SCHOOL Global Connect the District s automated voice messaging system will be alerting parents and staff concerning weather delay, early dismissals and school cancellations. The District website pa.us will have the latest updates posted on school delays and cancellations also. If serious weather conditions make it too dangerous to travel, the Conewago Valley School District may be closed or may be open on a delayed schedule. Notice will be given over the following radio stations: WHVR/ 98YCR, WGET/WGTY, WSBA/ WARM 103, and WITF 89.5FM. Announcement will normally be made by 6:30 A.M. The WGAL-TV 8, Fox 43, and WHTM-TV 27 will also carry school delays and cancellations. Parents and students are requested not to call the school concerning the closing of school. The radio stations will make frequent enough announcements to make telephone calls unnecessary. Also, it is possible that inclement weather could develop during the school day. Should this happen, the schools might be dismissed early in order to get children safely home before dangerous weather conditions actually prevail in the area. The purpose of these decisions would be to provide the greatest safety for all students. It may not be necessary to put the plans into effect, but parents should be aware of such possibilities. Parents who are away from home during school hours should make arrangements for their children in the event school is dismissed early so children know where to go until parents return. SCHOOL HEALTH SERVICES The main functions of the School Health Services are to facilitate positive student responses to normal development; promote health and safety; intervene with actual and potential health problems; and actively collaborate with others to build student and family capacity for adaptation, self management, and learning. The health program includes physical examinations, vision, hearing, height and weight, scoliosis screening, and counseling. Emergency care will be administered to those students who become ill or have accidents during school hours. In case of major illness or accident, the following procedures will be followed: 1. Parents will be called for instruction depending upon severity. 2. Procedures listed on the emergency card will be followed. 3. The student will be taken to the emergency room at the hospital. Treatment of minors in the emergency room is given only in life threatening situations without consent of parent or guardian. At the beginning of each school year, parents are asked to complete an emergency card providing current health concerns that the parent is aware of including any that are ongoing from the previous school year. In addition, parents should keep the school informed with the current address and telephone numbers where they can be reached in case of an emergency. The card should be filled in accurately and the school should be notified of any changes in procedure, address, or telephone numbers that occur during the school year. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT SOME RESPONSIBLE PERSON CAN BE REACHED AT ALL TIMES. This card must be signed by parent or guardian. A list of medications available in school is also listed for your approval. Medications will not be dispensed without parental approval. EXCLUSION FROM AIDS INSTRUCTION Parents who wish to have a child excluded from those portions of instruction involving the sexual transmission of AIDS need to notify the principal of the building, in writing, of this request. The request must be made each school year such an exclusion is requested. The principal will contact the parents to arrange a time when the material can be reviewed with the parents. If, after review, parents still desire exclusion of their child from that portion of AIDS education, alternative education for that period will be arranged among the teacher, the parents, and the principal. ADMINISTRATION OF MEDICATION Parents should confer with the child's physician to arrange medication time intervals to avoid school hours whenever possible. No medication may be administered without written authorization from the physician and the parent/guardian. When medication absolutely must be taken during school hours, the parent or guardian must submit a written request, signed by the physician and parent, to the school nurse in order for their child to take any medication. The appropriate medication permission form is available on the district website under health services, or from the school nurse. Handling and Storage of Medications in the School: We prefer that: 1. The parent bring the medicine to school. The medication must be in the original container and properly labeled. If necessary, request a duplicate bottle from the pharmacist. The medication and the written request should be delivered directly to the school nurse, school principal or his/her designee. The amount of medication stored by the school should be limited based on the length of time medications are to be taken. 2. All medication will be kept in a locked cabinet in the health room of the school. Medications requiring refrigeration will be stored in the health room refrigerator.

26 26 CONEWAGO VALLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT CALENDAR Administration of Medications During School Hours: 1. Students will be responsible for reporting to the nurse's office at the time the medication is to be taken. 2. The school nurse, principal or his/her designee will supervise the taking of the medication by the student. 3. Prescription drug logs will be kept for any child receiving prescription medicine on an ongoing basis. 4. Unused medications will be returned to parents for disposition. 5. Any change in dosage of medication will be recognized only on receipt of written notice of change from the family physician and the parent. COMMUNICABLE DISEASES Pennsylvania State law requires each student K-12 to be fully protected against certain diseases before admission to school is permitted. Children in all grades need the following 4 doses of tetanus* (1 dose on or after the 4th birthday) 4 doses of diphtheria* (1 dose on or after the 4th birthday) 3 doses of polio ( a 4th is recommended) 2 doses of measles ** 2 doses of mumps** 1 dose of rubella (German measles)** 3 doses of hepatitis B 2 doses of varicella (chickenpox) or a history of the disease *Usually given as DTP or DTaP or DT or Td ** Usually given as MMR Children attending 7th grade 1 dose of tetanus, diphtheria, acellular pertussis (Tdap) (if 5 years has elapsed since last tetanus immunization) 1 dose of meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MCV) Students absent from school due to illness must bring a written excuse stating the reason for absence. If the student was treated by a doctor, the excuse should be written by the doctor. State law requires a specific number of days of absence for certain diseases such as streptococcal infections, chicken pox, measles, German measles, mumps, whooping cough, and diphtheria. Please contact your school nurse if your child is diagnosed with any of these diseases. Pink eye, impetigo, ringworm, fungus infections, and scabies require treatment and a doctor's excuse is required for re-entry to school. Head lice must be treated and the child needs to be "nit free" as determined by the school nurse before he/she will be able to return to school. Please call the school nurse to make arrangements for this check. If a student becomes ill during the school day he/she must report to the school nurse. The nurse will contact the parent/guardian concerning dismissal from school. STUDENT ACCIDENT INSURANCE Student accident insurance is available to students. Medical coverages are offered for school-time only or a 24-hour per day basis. The District is not responsible for insurance contract administration. School insurance is offered to you as a service. FOOD SERVICE Conewago Valley School District recognizes that wellness and proper nutrition are related to students physical well-being, growth, development and readiness to learn. All foods available in the district schools during the day are offered to students with consideration for promoting student health and reducing childhood obesity. Foods provided through the National School Lunch Programs comply with federal nutrition standards under the School Meals Initiative. Lunch Program Each school in the district has a cafeteria that prepares nutritious meals daily. Students and adults in the elementary and secondary schools can purchase lunches. Students may also bring a lunch from home and purchase milk in the cafeteria. There are a variety of entrees, fruits, vegetables, and milk available each day for the meal price. You may choose the five components that make up your meal, so it s important to know and understand them. You must take three of the five offered for the meal price. We encourage you to take all five for a real meal deal. All students in grades K-12 deposit money into an account to purchase meals and/or a la carte items through the district s point-of-sale system. Each student has their own account that can be accessed using a Personal Identification Number (PIN). Your PIN Number is your five-digit student ID number assigned to you by the District. Your PIN number will remain the same as long as you are a student at Conewago Valley School District. You must use your number each time you make a purchase from the cafeteria. Money cannot be refunded off your account to use in the vending machines. We encourage all students to put advance payment on their account. This allows the lines to run smoothly, prevents loss or stolen money and is a convenience. At the end of the school year, if your child is changing buildings in the District, his/her balance will be transferred to the building for use the following year. If you re leaving the District, please check with the Food Service Department to review your child s lunch account. A refund may be due. Monthly menus are available to all students and on the District s web site Free and Reduced Lunch Conewago Valley School District participates in the National Free and Reduced Meals Program. Students from families who qualify (under federal guidelines) will receive meals free or at a reduced cost. All students in grades K-12 may purchase free or reduced meals through the point-of-sale system. Applications are available at all school building offices. These applications may be filed any time throughout the school year for any family experiencing income changes. All information is confidential; discrimination is not permitted in accordance with district, state and federal requirements. Students receiving free and reduced meals in June 2013 will continue to receive free or reduced meals until Thursday, October 3, 2013, the carry over expiration date. New applications must be submitted annually. Applying for Free/Reduced Meal Benefits Using the Internet Families that have children attending a public school district can apply for free or reduced price meals through the National School Lunch Program online using the internet. This can be done using COMPASS. COMPASS allows Pennsylvanians to apply for social service programs, such as Food Stamps (FS), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Energy Assistance, Children s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), etc. online. Families can use COMPASS to apply for free or reduced price school meals and/or they can apply for other services at the same time (FS, TANF, etc.). Since your child attends Conewago Valley School District, which is a public school district, you can apply for free or reduced price meals online by going to the COMPASS website at state.pa.us or you can continue to use the paper Household Meal Benefit Application that is distributed the first day of each new school year.

All students will receive an application the first day of school. You may apply for free or reduced meals any time through the school year. If you applied at the beginning of the year and were denied, but now have a decrease in household income, increase in family size, become unemployed, or begin receiving Food Stamps or TANF, you may be eligible.
