Third Grade Foundation Grant
 

Box Tops, Soup labels, etc.

Click on the box top to learn more!

Glendale is collecting General Mills box tops for education.  For each top returned to school, Glendale will receive ten cents.  The box top program helps fund many of the programs and special events at Glendale.  General mills will also be awarding one school $100 for the most box tops collected.  Glendale also accepts soup labels which are sent to Woodrow Wilson, and don't forget those used up printer ink cartridges are collected and sent off to be recycled.  Join in one of these great efforts!!

Dress Code

The purpose of a school dress code is twofold. First, it is to maintain a level of respect for the educational setting. Second, it is to ensure a classroom environment that is conducive to learning by minimizing distractions. While issues of student dress and appearance often become more distracting as students get older, it is important for students of all ages to observe general guidelines when choosing clothing, hairstyles, and accessories as they get ready for school each day.
For students in kindergarten through fifth grade, the following are considered to be inappropriate and will not be allowed at school:

• Tank tops or shirts with spaghetti straps
• Shirts that are backless or “see-through”
• Shirts that show the midriff or the sides of the body (large arm holes)
• Extremely short shorts
• Extreme hairstyles, including unusual and unnatural hair color
• Pants that sag so that a student’s underwear is visible
**We also discourage the use of make-up on students of this age.

For safety reasons, students’ shoes are to be tied snugly on students’ feet in spite of the fact that it is fashionable to keep tennis shoes on a slip on/slip off basis. Shoes with rollers in them (“heelies”) are also not allowed.
Students found to be in violation of these guidelines will be provided with a change of clothes by the school or will be allowed to call home for a change of clothes. If violations are repeated, consequences will be given as they are when any school rule is violated.
 

If you have questions about the student dress code, please consult the
Student Handbook or contact Mr. Estes at the school.
 

This year, each child at Glendale will receive a special gift.  To show our dedication to students' reading, each student will receive a book to celebrate his/her birthday.  Students will receive the following books as shown by grade level.  Click on each title to learn more about the books at www.amazon.com.
