Elementary Parents:
Open House will be Thursday, August 20th
To better serve you, we are asking families to try to come during designated hours by last name if possible.
A-G = 4:00-5:00 pm
H-M = 5:00-6:00 pm
M-Z = 6:00-7:00 pm
Here are some keys changes that students will see this year at Stockton Elementary:
1) Building doors will open at 7:30. Students will report directly to their elementary classrooms. We will have staff available to help guide them from the bus or parent drop off.
2) Students will have the opportunity to eat breakfast in the classrooms. Be watching for information with meal prices and free/reduced lunches.
3) Students need to bring a water bottle with them each day. Each building has a touchless refilling station, but the water fountains are disabled. Classrooms will have bottled water for students that do not have a water bottle at the beginning of school.
4) Classrooms have been socially distanced. Table dividers are used when students are sharing small tables.
5)Touchless sinks have been installed in all bathrooms.
6) Lunches will be eaten in the classroom. Hot lunches will still be provided.
7) All classes will be using the Dojo for communication. Information will be handed out at Open House to help you connect with your child’s new teacher right away.
8) Parent pickup at the end of the school day will be in a carline format at the cafeteria doors behind the school. Carline maps will be posted on Facebook soon. Carline pick up cards will be given out at Open House.
9) Masks wearing is optional and not required at the elementary school when at level Green. It is not required, but encouraged, at level Yellow.
10) If you are unable to attend Open House, please contact your child’s classroom teacher before the first day. You may reach them through email, Dojo, or calling the elementary at 417.276.5143.
Parents, thank you for being patient with us during the reopening period. If you have any questions about our changes, please contact the Elementary office. Even though we have several changes this year, we want to keep the school as normal as possible. As a staff, we are so excited to have our students back in the building. Even though things will be a little different, it will be a great year at Stockton Elementary School. GO TIGERS!!
Thank you Elementary PTO! They purchased and delivered snacks for K-4 classrooms to enjoy on the first couple days of school. They also brought in cases of water for students that forget to pack a water bottle. You are the best!
Attention MS Parents:
Here are some keys changes that students will see this year at Stockton Middle School:
1) Building doors will open at 7:30. Students will report to their 1st-hour class (5th grade to homeroom) instead of going to the gym. Students will have the opportunity to eat breakfast in the classrooms.
2) Our MS offices have moved to the entrance of the hallway. This provides access to the office without having to enter the hallway.
3) Students will be required to wear a mask during transition times and times when social distancing cannot happen.
4) Due to students’ inability to share lockers, we will not be assigning lockers to students until school starts. Students will carry supplies from class to class. Students are encouraged to use backpacks. Once school begins, lockers will be assigned to students that require a locker.
5) Classrooms have been socially distanced. Table dividers are used when students are sharing small tables.
6) Water fountains are no longer functioning in the buildings. Students are encouraged to carry a water bottle. Water bottle fillers are located in all buildings. Classrooms will have bottled water for students that do not have a water bottle at the beginning of school.
7)Touch less sinks have been installed in all bathrooms.
8) Currently, lunches will be eaten in the classroom. Hot lunches will still be provided. On good weather days, students will have the opportunity to go outside and eat.
9) All classes will be using the Google Classroom platform.
10) Parent pickup at the end of school in the cafeteria will be in a carline format.
