This is a reminder from SVES that today is an early release day. Students riding the bus are dismissed at 11:30am. Students being picked up are dismissed at 11:40am.

Students and staff here at SVES had a wonderful first day. It was great to have students back in the building again. I would like to remind parents/guardians that students being dropped off in the morning need to be dropped off along the curb of the lower parking lot on the passenger side. This is to create a safe drop off experience for everyone. Students are able to be dropped off starting at 7:40am. There is not adequate supervision for students to be dropped off prior to 7:40am. Staff will be out on the sidewalk at the start of morning drop off. In the afternoon if you are picking up your child, please remain in your vehicle with your pick up tag in the passenger side window. Having these procedures followed speeds up the pick up process and allows us to get all students to vehicles safely. Please expects delays during drop off and pick up for the first couple weeks of school.

This is a reminder that Sebasticook Valley Elementary School has Open House tonight from 5:00-6:00 PM. We hope to see you there!

It is expected to be extremely cold tomorrow, February 3rd. Although students will not be having outside recess, students should still be bundled up warmly for arrival and dismissal. If your child rides the bus, please make sure they are bundled up in winter gear. It would be safest for parents to wait out by the bus stop in a vehicle with your child so he/she can stay warm until the bus arrives for pick up. Please be ready to receive your child(ren) at afternoon dismissal as well. We want to make sure all of our students are warm and safe! When we return to school after the weekend, the building is likely to be colder than is typical. Please make sure you dress your child in warm clothing or layers so they are comfortable during the school day.
