We believe that every child is unique and therefore, has a right to learn and be treated as an individual. The faculty, staff, and volunteers have the responsibility to accept each child at his/her own level of development and provide the basic foundation for educating the whole child; academically, socially, emotionally, and physically.

The school day for students begins at 8:55 a.m. and ends at 3:25 p.m. Students should not arrive prior to 8:20 a.m., as there is no supervision. Children should not be left on the school grounds after 3:40 p.m. unless the parent is present to supervise. Students left after 3:40 p.m. will be taken to the after school program and a fee will be charged. The Wakulla County Senior Citizens Center offers before and after school care on the school grounds for a fee. Please contact them directly at 926-7145 to make arrangements.

Daily attendance in school is critical for academic success. Please make sure your child arrives at school on time and you refrain from picking them up prior to dismissal. If your child is absent from school, please send a written note or doctor’s excuse upon their return. Perfect attendance will be awarded only to students who are in attendance each day, arrive on time, and do not get picked up prior to 1:15 pm. Please refer to the Wakulla County Code of Student Conduct and Attendance booklet.

Your child’s teacher will communicate with you during the school year regarding your child’s progress. You will be contacted in person, by letter, e-mail, or by telephone. If a concern arises about your child, parents should first discuss the problem with the teacher. Parent conferences may be scheduled between 8:05-8:45 a.m. or after 3:30 p.m. The principal distributes The Warrior Way each month with school information such as lunch menus, upcoming events, parent tips, educational web sites, current news, and recognition. This publication can be found online at: www.firn.edu/schools/wakulla/shadev_el/ Classroom teachers distribute a newsletter of class events and information. It may also be viewed online at:

For your child’s safety when picking them up from school we ask that you use the designated car line. Students will exit at the double doors beside the computer lab. They will wait on the benches until their car pulls into the loading area. Please enter the first drive on your right when you arrive, wait your turn in line and have your school pick up identification on your dash. Please refrain from taking your child out of school before 3:20 p.m. unless you have a medical appointment. This practice disrupts the classroom teaching environment.

All visitors to the campus MUST use the main entrance. Please check in at the front desk when you arrive. You will receive a Visitor’s Pass to wear while on campus. Be sure to also check out when your visit is complete. Student safety is our top priority!

Please send a note with your child if he/she is to ride a different bus, go to the after school program, or get off at a different location. Calling the school for this purpose, (unless it is an emergency), interrupts the education process for everyone, including your child. Bus notes are delivered to the classroom at 2:30 p.m. No changes will be made after that time. |
