Late Pick Up: All children who are not picked up on time by 1:05pm will be escorted by the class Teacher Assistant to the Late Pick up room – Family and Resource Room (FRC), which is located on the first floor across the pool. Professional supervision will be provided until 1:45pm at a cost of $10 per child. If you are late (after 1:05) to pick up your child from his/her respective classroom for any reason, please proceed to pick him/her up from the FRC room. You will be requested to display your ID to the Teacher on duty before your child will be released. We appreciate your cooperation to ensure the safety of your children/ our students!
Safety During School Dismissal: JRoots students, ages 3-10, will be dismissed ONLY to parents/guardians/ authorized individuals listed on the registration form. Please be patient in the first couple weeks, as our Homeroom staff gets to know you. Please bring appropriate identification with you, as we will not release the child to an unauthorized individual.
Dress Code: As the J.Roots team strives to create a unique school –with an all-encompassing atmosphere, all J.Rooters and staffs are asked to respect the special dress code: J.Roots t-shirt / staff hoodie. Dress code for events is a long sleeve white shirt, J.Roots royal blue t-shirt, black pants and nice shoes.
We are a Nut-Free Environment: Due to a number of students and staff with life-threatening peanut and nut allergies, we ask that no nuts of any kind are brought into our school for any reason. All snack foods should be carefully checked to make sure they are nut-free. Families can help ensure that our school stays nut-free by reading packaging labels and reminding children not to share food with other children at school.
Charitable Tax Receipt: All tuition fees and any charitable donations are fully tax deductable. Tax receipts will be mailed by the Schwartz Reisman accounting department upon full payment.
