We ask you to consider NON-FOOD treats such as pencils, stickers, or small trinkets. However, If you choose to provide a food treat, please observe the following...

Treats must be provided for ALL students in the class.
All treats must be store-bought in the original packaging material and individually wrapped. NO BAKERY CUPCAKES!
All treats must have labels identifying the ingredients used to make the treats.
Please note that individual classrooms may prohibit certain items due to health or food allergies

Please know that whether a treat is sent in or not, we will be sure to make each student feel very special on their day!

Birthday treats should be prearranged with your child's teacher at least a couple of days in advance.

Where Did Fall Go???

The temperatures have dropped and the weather will start getting cold very soon. Please make sure your children have proper attire for the cold temps. We will be going outside unless temperatures are below "feels Like" 20 degrees or the weather is hazardous (ice or large amounts of snow) on the playground. Proper attire is required to play in the snow (hats, boots, and gloves). We will be going outside, even if it is snowing.

If your child is in need of assistance in obtaining warmer clothing, coats, hats, mittens/gloves, etc..., please contact the main office at 734-783-5386

Raptor - WBSD Visitor/Volunteer Management System

Please have your ID with you when you come to visit us!

Our number one priority at Gudith is the safety of our students, staff, and visitors. We have installed the Raptor Visitor Management System to make our building safe. Each time a visitor or volunteer arrives, they are required to immediately report to the main office to scan their identification and receive a visitor's/volunteer badge before they are permitted to enter.

The Raptor visitor management system is used to verify the identity of a visitor, keep track of check-in and check-out times, and print custom visitor labels. It also provides a consistent system to track visitors and volunteers across the district.

Volunteers ARE WELCOME in the building this year.

All volunteers must have a current i-Chat background check on file in the main office. This background check must be done yearly and is good for all students in the district.

I - Chat forms can be found here

We encourage you to take a look a the free lessons on the website - www.randomactsokindess.org so you can follow along with what our students are learning in the classroom.

The Zones of Regulation ("The Zones")

Gudith Staff and Students will be participating in The Zones of Regulation curriculum, which are lessons to help them gain skills in the area of self-regulation. Self-regulation is defined as the best state of alertness of both the body and emotions for a specific situation. The lessons and learning activities are designed to help the students recognize when they are in the different zones as well as learn how to use strategies to change or stay in the zone they are in.

Morning Line-Up and Afternoon Pick-Up Procedures

When dropping off and picking up students, we ask you to observe the following safety procedures:

Drop Off:

The drop-off lane is open.
This is our KISS & GO ZONE. Pull up next to the sidewalk to let your student out of your vehicle from the passenger side ONLY.
Please do not drop off your students in the parking lot or the second lane of traffic.
If your student needs assistance exiting the car, you MUST park your car in the lot and walk your student to the front of the school to ensure a safe crossing from the parking lot.
Students should not be permitted to walk past parked or moving cars unescorted.
Y5-K-1-2nd graders will have outdoor lineup locations marked by teacher names.
3-4 grade students will line up outside at their classroom doors.

Pick Up:

Our Y5-K-1-2 graders who are getting picked-up will be escorted to their outside staging locations. Parents should pick up your student from these staging areas.
3-4 Graders will exit from their classroom doors. All 3-4 classrooms are by the patio
You may meet your child at their classroom doors or staging location and escort them to your car
No student will be allowed to leave the sidewalk unescorted.
Do not call your student to your car if you are parked in the main lot

Early Pick Up

Please come into the office to sign out your student!
Anyone who picks up your child MUST be on your Emergency Contact List.
- You can update your emergency contacts by logging into Parent Portal.
If you must pick up your student early, plan to pick them up prior to 3:30 pm, however, every effort should be made to alleviate this growing issue by honoring the school schedule.
