**REMINDER**

Please update any information as soon as it changes at the front desk. (i.e. Email addresses, phone numbers, emergency contacts, names of folks who transport your children to and from the School, etc.)

Field Trips and Special Events: We created a procedure that will make the planning a little smoother. Students will receive a Parent Permission Slip two weeks prior to the field trip/event. Students have one whole week to turn in their slips to the front desk. If turned in past the 1-week mark, it will not be accepted unless a parent submits it and space is still available. Waiting until the last minute may mean your student does not get a spot for that trip.

Parent drivers and volunteers are a huge help for these field trips/events. If you are willing to help, please sign up with the front desk as soon you can. There will be a driver form to be completed and approved.

Library Procedures: We have a library of books at AeroSTEM Academy. It is small at the moment, but continues to grow. Please feel free to ask our front desk gals for assistance whenever you need it! Parents and students can check out library books. Students will receive a notification of responsibility for lost and/or damaged parts upon checkout.

School Hours: Our front office is open Monday - Friday from 7:30am – 4:30pm. 

Teacher Availability: If homework help, guidance, or support is needed, please reach out to your teachers. Email is the best way to reach them.

Basic Student Supplies: If a need arises, you may contact your staff for basic school supplies. Students are expected to bring expected school supplies with them to every class.

Student Laptops: Student computers are checked out for student use only. (All student computers are intended for school-related uses only. Please consult the Technology and Internet Use agreement in the Parent/Student Handbook found under “Family Resources” of the AeroSTEM website.) Student computers require a signed contract between the school and the parent.

The following guidelines and others are found in their entirety in the Parent/Student Handbook.
