Celebrations

Timber Drive hosts many celebrations throughout the year. The events are announced through the PTA, classroom newsletters, and local newspapers.
Health, safety and instructional focus dictate that balloons, gifts, etc. will not be delivered to classrooms. Such recognition should be directed to the home.
Classroom learning experiences are curriculum-based and may be facilitated by parents who coordinate the event with approval of the classroom teacher.
Holiday, birthday, or other celebrations should be part of a learning experience.

An alternative for honoring your child is to donated and present a favorite book to the media center, provide a health snack (see Child Nutrition Link)for the
day, or volunteer to help with an activity with advanced notice from the teacher. Please know that the staff at Timber Drive utilizes instructional time
in the most effective manner.

Citizenship at Timber Drive
Behavior Expectations

Timber Drive staff is committed to ensuring a productive learning experience for all students. Respect and responsibility in all situations
will result in our students meeting established behavior expectations. We believe our students will help maintain a safe, non-threatening
learning environment through respect for themselves, other people and all property. Secondly, they will accept their responsibility to make
this happen and consequences if it does not. Each teacher has specific expectations for their children. We solicit the continuing support of
all parents as well in helping make Timber Drive a great school.

School-wide behaviors that are expected:

Demonstrate respect for all school property
Always walk quietly on the right-hand side of the hallway
Practice good manners (no gum, courteous attention to visitors and speakers, no hats inside, appropriate dress, no loud voices in the hallways)

VERY IMPORTANT MESSAGE! Please read carefully.

Child Nutrition of WCPSS has communicated the following items of importance that are effective immediately as related to foods brought into schools. To reduce the risk of a food-related illness the following precautions are in place at Timber Drive.

In general only commercially prepared foods should be brought into school for student consumption.
This would mean the food has a packaging /nutrition label. We have many children at Timber Drive that have various allergies to food and ingredients in which the food was prepared. High-risk foods of animal origin ( milk, eggs, meat, etc.) that require refrigeration are discouraged.

Drier foods can be accepted for special occasions as pre approved by the teacher. These include cookies, cakes with commercial frosting ( no cream fillings), breads not containing pieces of fruit or nuts, vegetables, canned/bottled/boxed drinks. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU CONSULT WITH THE CLASSROOM TEACHER BEFORE SENDING IN ANY FOOD!!

Persons visiting the cafeteria to eat with their child should sign in at the front office and should plan to eat from the cafeteria line. NO FAST FOODS should be brought into the cafeteria. ( This guideline is in the Parent Handbook.)

Field trip provisions for keeping beverages/food safe will be handled by the classroom teachers.
