Weekly note:

​Hi parents, 

​

Well, yesterday sure was fun, eh?

​

Sorry about the fiasco--you can blame Helene! It was a compromised tree along Beverly Rd. that fell and took out the power lines. With the timing of it all, even once power came back, it was too late to put the toothpaste back in the tube. 

​

This week I want to highlight a feature of MySchoolBucks that, despite us using this system for 6 months now, only about 20 of you have taken advantage of, and that's automatic payments. This can be set up using the "Payment Options" button when you open an invoice.

​

Another SchoolBucks thing I want to give a reminder about is signing out on the iPad. At the end of most afternoons, we look back at the log and find that 10+ kids are still listed as checked-in, which means the person signing them out didn't complete the process. After you put in your PIN, you aren't done with the process until you click the confirm button and see the Thank You screen, like so:

​

​

Thanks! ​​​

FAQ of the Week​

I'm running late, what do I do?

  • Call us! Our direct line is 828-484-4989. We're generally forgiving (such as not starting the $1/minute clock until 6:10) with the late fee for people that are late once or twice in a school year and that also call and let us know. If we don't answer the phone we will get the message right away.
