EVERYDAY COUNTS!
Imagine Believe Achieve
Morning Check - Ins
Morning drop-off begins at 7:15 am. The school provides staff to monitor students walking from the car line into the building. Staff return to the building after the tardy bell at 7:40 am. After this time, all students must be walked into the building and signed in by an adult. There are no exceptions.
As an addendum, minors such as older siblings may not sign in our students. An adult is required to sign in every late student.

School Bus Safety
Families,
Please remind your students that it is very important to follow the rules for riding the school bus. Our drivers need to pay attention to the road. The last thing we want to hear about is a bus accident because student behavior distracted the bus driver. On Friday, all of our students reviewed the bus rules and practiced loading and unloading a school bus. Attached below the picture are the Bus Rules and Consequences from NHCS Transportation.

Away for the Day
At R. Freeman Elementary School, cell phones and personal devices are expected to be away for the day.
- Students will keep personal devices turned off and put away in backpacks.
- This included phones, smart watches, tablets, laptops, headphones, earpods, and similar devices that are not school-issued.
- Students may access their personal devices before school (before they enter the building) and after announcements (2:30pm).
- Students may NOT access their personal devices during the school day (7:15am - 2:30pm).
- Parents may call the front office to leave messages for their student (910) 250-6011
- If a student needs to call home, they can use the front office phone.
How can families support in this area?
- Please support by not expecting your student to access their phone during the school day.
- Students can bring devices to school to let families know they have arrived or about after school plans. They just cannot access the device during the school day.
