WCPSS Bullying Prevention
http://www.wcpss.net/cass/counseling/parent-student-resources/bullying.html

Picture
WCPSS Board Policy 6414 specifically prohibits harassing or bullying behavior. The policy states that it is the priority of the Wake County Board of Education to provide every student and employee in the school system with a safe and orderly learning and working environment. All complaints of harassing or bullying behavior made by students shall be promptly and thoroughly investigated by the principal or designee. Violations of this policy shall be considered misconduct and will result in disciplinary action up to and including long-term suspension or expulsion in the case of students. Thank you for your attention to this very serious matter.

First In Math

 Use the following web address: www.firstinmath.com  

"First in Math" is an online resource to help increase computation, problem solving, critical thinking and essential math basics. The content and skills are presented in a fun, "game" format. Your child will need a User ID and password to access the site at home which will be sent home by homeroom teachers. 

Study Island - Internet based program

We have a subscription for Study Island that can be accessed at home. It is a computerized program that can be used with students in grades 3-5 regardless of performance levels. Your child and you can practice passages to build persistance and stamina for the EOG tests. It is useful as independent practice of curricular goals that will be tested on EOG's. It is not to be used as general EOG preperation. Parents can use professional development tabs to view video clips for introduction to objectives, lessons, and background. This would also be a great tool for your child to access over the summer to practice skills.
The web address is: www.studyisland.com


Student Accident Insurance Information

Our school/district has selected the Student Insurance Plan from K&K Insurance Group to make
reliable coverage available to parents. If you don't have other insurance, this plan may be a resource to
consider. Additionally, even if you have other coverage, this plan can help fill expensive "gaps" caused by
deductible and co-pays. Coverage may be purchased at any time during the school year by visiting the following links:
