                                                 For Students Who Have Completed Grades K-3

Welcome!
Welcome to Worlds of Wonder, the District 64 summer program. Our staff has prepared a program filled with learning, enrichment, and fun! If you
have questions regarding the program, do not hesitate to stop by the office, contact us by phone, or send an email. The summer school office phone
number at Washington is 847-653-3768. Office hours are 8:00 a.m.–12:00 noon. The summer school principal can be reached at aclishem@d64.org.

Dropping Off and Picking up Students at Washington School.​ Washington Elementary School is located at 1500 W. Stewart in Park Ridge. Most
parents will be driving their child to school. Please drive carefully. We encourage you to arrive early. Staff parking lots are for staff only or for those
who require handicap parking. Please find a permissible parking spot on the neighborhood roads. Please be aware of the no parking zones at the
very front of the school on Stewart and along the east side of the school along Western. ​Signs will be outside each day that will serve as a visual of
                         ​ nce you park your car, walk your child to the school building. Finally, please remember that students must be dropped off
where cars should park.​ O
on time and picked up at dismissal. No supervision is available for students who arrive before 8:20 a.m. or who remain unattended after 11:40 a.m.

Walking and Biking to School
Neighborhood crossing guards will be stationed at the following intersections: ​Belle Plaine & Greenwood, Western & Touhy, Western & Crescent,
                                           ​ lease do not cross the street to and from school without the assistance of a crossing guard. Never go
Western & Stewart, and Western & Talcott.​ P
across the middle of the street and especially where parked cars obstruct the view of moving vehicles. Cross only at intersections. Students riding a
bicycle to and from school must wear a bicycle helmet. ​Bikes should be locked. The bike rack is located on Crescent Avenue.

Entry/Exit Doors and Building Security
There are two entry and exit doors designated by class (see list below). Between 8:20 a.m. and 8:30 a.m., teachers will wait outside to line up
students. Teachers will hold signs indicating the name of their class and will stand in one of two places: outside Door #1 (the main entrance to the
school) or outside Door #15 (the middle door facing the lawn along Western Ave.). ​Because many students stay for a second class, it will be important
for you to note from which door that second class will dismiss students​.

The first class starts promptly at 8:30 a.m. Attendance is taken as soon as students are settled in their classrooms. Please try your best to be on time.
If classes have already entered the building when your child arrives, please bring your child into school through the main office (Door #1 facing
Stewart). At 10:00 a.m., we have a passing period. Staff will escort students who stay for a second class to their second teacher. Students who
dismiss at 10:10 a.m. will be escorted to their exit door. A staff person will wait with them until they are picked up. The program ends at 11:40 a.m.
Because there is no after school supervision of students, all students need to be picked up promptly.

Students Going to Park District Camps
Some students may also participate in the Park District’s early morning “before care” program or afternoon day camps. Parents interested in Park
District transportation to or from Washington School will need to make those arrangements with the Park District. To avoid unnecessary phone calls
and transportation delays, please notify the Washington School office at (847) 653-3768 in advance if your child is not using Park District
transportation on a particular day. Each classroom assistant will escort Park District campers to the school auditorium where, under summer school
supervision, they will meet up with their camp counselors. We will also take daily attendance at that point to account for all the children going to
camp.

Student Absence, and Tardiness
We expect students to be in attendance. Therefore, absences must be called in to the summer school office before the start of class at 847-653-3768.
Calls made before 8:00 a.m. will be received by voice mail. Because all building doors are kept locked, students arriving after 8:30 a.m. must be
accompanied by a parent to the main school entrance facing Stewart. Students then report to the office and are given a class entry slip before going
to class.

Student Health, Allergies, Medications and Illness Prevention.
Your willingness to disclose details about your child’s allergies, or absence due to illness, will help us promote the health and wellness of all. Staff
members will promote proper hand hygiene in all classes and especially in classes where students handle and consume food. Medications for your
child should be clearly labeled. Medications should be brought to the summer school office on Tuesday, June 5, the first day of school, and picked up
on Friday, July 13, the last day of school. There are no snack times during the summer school day. Make sure the children eat breakfast before they
come to school. Students are encouraged to bring bottled water on very hot days.

MESSAGE FROM THE SUMMER SCHOOL NURSE
In keeping with our District Food Guidelines, and in the interest of promoting healthy habits and ensuring the safety of those with life-threatening food
allergies, please note the following: Please refrain from bringing in birthday or other “special day” treats. Consider alternate ways of acknowledging
your child’s special day. Food used during cooking classes or class projects involving food will not knowingly contain nut/peanut products. Labels will
be checked to ensure that such foods do not contain traces of peanut/nut products or are produced on machinery that has processed nuts. In addition,
all food preparation for school consumption will follow District 64 Guidelines for Food Preparation/Delivery in School. Your cooperation is greatly
appreciated!

K-3 Worlds of Wonder DAILY SCHEDULE
8:20 a.m. First Arrival​—Students who have a class at 8:30 a.m., and who arrive by car or on foot, proceed directly to the areas where their class
lines up. Students coming to school on a Park District bus arrive at our bus drop off zone on Stewart facing the main entrance of the building. District
64’s transportation supervisor greets the children as they come off the bus. The supervisor lines students up and escorts them to their entry doors.
8:30 a.m. Student entry—​Students line up by class outside their designated entry doors (either Door #1 or Door #15). Watch for teachers holding
up signs showing the name of their class. Teachers greet students and escort them to their classrooms. Entry doors remain locked. Attendance is
taken in the classroom, and the first class begins. Students arriving late report with their parent to the main school office at Door #1 for a class pass.
9:55 a.m. First dismissal and switching period​—Students signed up for the first class period only are escorted to their designated entry/exit doors
where a staff member releases them to their parents. If someone other than the parent will be picking up the student (older sibling, babysitter,
grandparent, etc.), please notify the school office in advance). The office will then inform the teacher. Students remaining for the entire morning are
escorted to their second class. Second period teachers greet their students, check them in, and take them outside for a supervised break.
10:00 a.m. Supervised break between classes​—Students who have transitioned from their first period to their second period class enjoy a ten
minute supervised break in the playground areas behind the school.
Second Arrival​—Students who begin their summer school day at 10:10 a.m. and who arrive by car or on foot proceed directly to their designated
entry door. Staff will be waiting for students to escort them to their classrooms at 10:10 a.m.

Attendance is taken for all students who begin a second period class.
11:40 a.m. Dismissal​—At this time, students are escorted to their designated exits where parents pick up their children. Again, if someone other than
the parent will be picking up the student (older sibling, babysitter, grandparent, etc.), please notify the school office in advance). The office will then
inform the teacher. Students going to Park District programs are escorted to the auditorium where the District 64 transportation supervisor and camp
counselors take attendance. Campers leave Washington School under Park District supervision.
