Frequently Asked Questions:
This page contains answers to common questions of students and parents.
How early can I drop off my child? How late can I pick him/her up?
If you need to drop off your child in the morning, the earliest you may do so is 8:30 am. The latest you can pick up your child is 3:30 pm.
What time of the day should I drop off birthday goodies?
Birthday goodies can be dropped off in the office any time of the day; however, we don't celebrate birthdays until snack time. We have 22 children in our class. Please make sure to only send in non-food items for treats. These can be goody bags, small prizes, pencils, erasers, or stickers. Thank you for your understanding in this matter. This will help us to be active participants in Big Hollow Wellness Initiative.
What is the procedure if my child is going to be absent?
Please call the front office to let them know your child won't be at school. The office is open from 8:30 to 4:30. The phone number is (847)740-5320. I will any missed work and send it home with your child when they return to school.
What if there is a change in my child's transportation for the day?
Please notify the office by phone or by sending a note in your child's Agenda if there is a change in transportation. Please note - If the office is not notified, your child will take his/her normal route!
What do I do if I want to eat lunch with my child at school?
Our class eats lunch from 11:50 - 12:10. Please sign in at the office.
How does the hot lunch program work?
You can pay for lunches and milk on the Big Hollow website through RevTrak. You may also purchase lunches and milk by sending money in an envelope labeled “Hot Lunches”, your child’s name, and my name on it. Please place this in the clear pocket in the front of your child’s Agenda.
What should I be practicing with my child at home?
READ, READ, READ! Reading is the number one area that needs to be practiced with your child, no matter what their reading level. Read to them, have them read to you, explore different genres, go to the library, and make it fun!
